IU Health Jay Hospital 2018 Community Health Needs Assessment
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Introduction
This Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) was conducted to identify significant community health needs and to inform development of an Implementation Strategy that addresses them.
IU Health Jay Hospital (IU Health Jay Hospital or “the hospital”) strives to promote health and wellness in the communities it serves while providing access to the highest quality, compassion, and trusted care.
The hospital is part of Indiana University Health (IU Health), the largest and most comprehensive health system in the state of Indiana. IU Health, in partnership with Indiana University School of Medicine, one of the nation’s leading medical schools, gives patients access to leading-edge medicine and treatment options that are available first, and often only, at IU Health. Additional information about IU Health is available at: https://iuhealth.org/.
Each IU Health hospital is dedicated to the community it serves. Each hospital conducts a CHNA to understand current community health needs and to inform strategies designed to improve community health, including initiatives designed to address social determinants of health. The CHNAs are conducted using widely accepted methodologies to identify the significant needs of a specific community. The assessments also are conducted to comply with federal laws and regulatory requirements that apply to tax-exempt hospitals.
IU Health invites community members to review the Community Health Needs Assessments and provide comments to communitybenefit@iuhealth.org.
