Overview of the JSNA Data Inventory Paul Brotherton Freelance consultant in public health 30 January 2012
Outline • background/why a new data inventory? • issues/direction of travel • the new inventory • making an impact with JSNA data • further information
Background • JSNA core dataset published July 2008 • JSNA development programme, DH • learning from experience/good practice • changing context (NHS reforms etc….) • JSNA toolkit (LGID/Healthy Communities) • review of JSNA guidance
Why a new data inventory? • old core dataset sometimes seen as a ‘ticklist’ • impact of JSNA (not an end in itself) • perceived NHS data bias • changing information sources and context • different types of information (“not everything that can be counted counts, not everything that counts can be counted”) • encourage wider involvement in JSNA
Some issues considered • scope of the JSNA • local decision-making versus central direction • need for wide engagement in the JSNA • impact on strategy and commissioning • relationship between JSNA and other local needs assessments
The new inventory - aims • simpler structure • more user-friendly • wider coverage • flexibility/local discretion • engage commissioners from the beginning • support HWBs in telling a meaningful local story • relevant to the new world
Each domain includes: • introduction to the domain • questions to consider • suggested indicators • local views • inequalities • sources and notes
Sample JSNA questions • what are the social, economic and other factors that promote or harm well being? • how do they affect different groups and cause inequalities? • what do local people feel about the area? • what are the community’s main assets? • what are the main drivers of service utilisation?
Sample JSNA questions (2) • what are the trends over time? • what will happen if current trends continue? • what does the future look like under different scenarios? • what would be the effect of making key interventions? • what criteria should be used for setting local priorities?
Making an impact with JSNA data • wide involvement at the early stages • begin with the end in mind • different geographical levels and groups • high quality data analysis • different types of data/intelligence • understanding pathways of need • clear method of selecting priority topics (importance or not of ‘league table’ position)
Making an impact (2) • modelling different futures (eg outcomes logic model) • cost effectiveness (where and when do the costs and benefits occur?) • quantify service requirements • acknowledge uncertainty/ tensions/ trade-offs/complexity • continuous process, not a one-off.
