Community Health Needs Assessment

What is a Community Health Needs Assessment?

A community health needs assessment is a way for communities to identifiy, and analyze the specific health needs of their community. This assessment allows communities to prioritize their health needs, make a plan to meet those needs, and then execute the plan. Cooperstown Medical Center completes the Comminity Health Needs Assessment because it is a Critical Access Hospital (CAH) and completion of the assessment is mandated by the Affordable Care Act. All CAHs are required to complete this assessment every three years. There are mulitple ways to asses community health needs, here are a few ways:

  • Stakeholder meetings
  • Community focus groups
  • Surveys
  • Interviews with community leaders
  • Population health and other health-related data

DAISY Award

The DAISY Award was established by the DAISY Foundation in memory of J. Patrick Barnes who died at 33 of ITP, an auto-immune disease. The Barnes Family was awestruck by the clinical skills, caring and compassion of the nurses who cared for Patrick, so they created this national award to say thank you to nurses everywhere.
