Joint Strategic Needs Assessment
The Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) is a statutory document introduced by the Local Government Health and Public Involvement in Health Act (2007). Its purpose is to support the effective commissioning, shaping and delivery of local health and social care services by describing the current and future health, care and well-being needs of the people of Barnet. The JSNA is in two documents. The Navigational Summary provides an overview of the pressing health needs in the borough and the Full Version investigates these needs in more detail.

Barnet’s JSNA needs to be considered by all relevant partnership boards so that they take account of the messages it contains in their future policies and plans. It will also inform future commissioning by GP clusters and form the basis of strong locality commissioning, with a focus on community and preventative services.
