Local Area Needs Assessment
The Southern Adelaide Local Area Needs Assessment (LANA) has now been completed.
To those of you who contributed your thoughts as part of this work, thank you. The feedback you so kindly provided, either via the survey or by attending a session, was absolutely invaluable.
The LANA will help us identify the health needs and priorities of the communities we serve.
It is based on population and health service data, and also reflects what we heard from staff, community members, health partners, and various agencies during our consultations.
The LANA will help guide our decision making regarding our services; how we allocate resources, find improvement opportunities, and seek investment.
