Reasons for Decision

 

 

It is good practice for DPH reports to contain recommendations aimed at improving the health of the local population, addressed to a number of partners and stakeholders as required. This year’s report includes three such recommendations addressed to the Council and the Clinical Commissioning Group. This year, the recommendations are based on areas for further research.

Alternatives Considered and Rejected

 

 

The Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (including detailed health needs assessments) and an analysis of our performance against the 159 indicators that make up the national Public Health Outcomes Framework were used to identify the three main priorities for improving health and wellbeing in the local population and these formed the basis of the report accordingly.
