The Somerset Health and Wellbeing Board has a statutory duty to produce a Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA). Our JSNA describes the current and future health, care and wellbeing needs of the local population. Based on this evidence, the Board has set out its overall vision, key priorities and the actions to meet those needs in the current Improving Lives Strategy 2019-2028.
