(2nd September 2015) All chapters are written, but not all have been signed off as complete by senior management. If you require a draft copy of a chapter not yet available below, please email phi@leics.gov.uk
Joint strategic needs assessments (JSNAs) analyse the health needs of populations to inform and guide commissioning of health, wellbeing and social care services within local authority areas.
In 2015, the JSNA refresh has focused on developing desktop access to a core set of population health needs data. The key findings from this data are presented in our executive summary and this is accompanied by more detailed reports for a number of key topics. All of the dashboards have been developed to include data on Leicestershire County Council and the 7 district councils, Rutland County Council, plus Leicester City and the two Leicestershire and Rutland CCGs of West Leicestershire, and East Leicestershire and Rutland.

Further information
A series of data dashboards and reports is available as supplementary information to the main 2015 JSNA report and data pack. The following links may be helpful for further information about the needs and health of the population in Leicestershire:
The End of Life Care Profiles aim to improve the availability and accessibility of information around end of life care. The data has been taken from Public Health England's Fingertip tool available here: http://fingertips.phe.org.uk/profile/end-of-life. The dashboards provide comparative information on factors such as underlying cause of death and the place of death to describe population trends associated with the end of life. They are intended to help local government and health services improve care at the end of life.
The Sexual health assessment aims to provide a whole system evidence base to help understand the sexual health needs of Leicestershire and Rutland. It informs the development of a sexual health and HIV future direction.
This research aimed to provide useful data and insights to help inform Leicestershire County Council's cold homes and health programmes; but in particular the development of the new Warm Homes, Healthy Homes service.
