Every three years, these organizations combine their efforts to thoroughly listen and respond to the ever-evolving needs of the Acadiana region. This year's endeavor, running until May 20, 2024, welcomes the active participation of adults aged 18 and over through a survey accessible at unitedwayofacadiana.org/chna
The CHNA is a crucial requirement mandated by law, necessitating input from a diverse array of community representatives, including healthcare experts and individuals familiar with local healthcare needs. As part of this process, inclusive focus groups involving both healthcare professionals and community leaders will be convened to ensure an accurate representation of the area's healthcare necessities.
The insights gathered from this assessment will not merely be statistics on a report but will serve as the foundation for actionable strategies. Once completed, the assessment will be reviewed and adopted by the boards of Ochsner Lafayette General and Our Lady of Lourdes. These findings will guide both institutions in their dedicated endeavors to enhance health outcomes within the community.
Moreover, United Way of Acadiana will leverage the assessment outcomes to direct its community investments, aiming to bolster the social determinants of health and foster holistic well-being.
