Community Health Needs Assessment

During 2015-2016, Saint Joseph Mount Sterling conducted a community health needs assessment (CHNA) to support its mission to enhance the health of people in the communities it serves by identifying health needs in these communities and prioritizing the allocation of hospital resources to meet those needs.  Additionally, the completion of this report and subsequent approval and adoption by the CHI Saint Joseph Health Board of Directors complies with CHNA requirements mandated by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 and federal tax-exemption requirements.  This report will be made public and widely-available on or before June 30, 2016 and will cover July 1, 2016-June 30, 2019. 

To easily share the information in this CHNA, we have created a one-page infographic to communicate the needs we identified.  Please see the links below for the full report and the infographic flier.

 

Implementation Strategies

Saint Joseph Mount Sterling will use the findings in the community health needs assessment to guide the coordinated efforts in addressing the identified health priorities.  The efforts to address these identified health priorities will be described in an accompaniment to this document known as Saint Joseph Mount Sterling Implementation Strategies.  This will be made public and widely available no later than November 15, 2016 and will guide work through June 30, 2019.
