A community health assessment is a developmental process that is added to and amended over time. It is not an end in itself, but a way of using information to plan healthcare and public health programs. In the “Service Line Development Case Study,” there is a community health needs assessment that describes the state of local individuals’ health. This assessment allows the major risk factors, the causes of ill health, and the actions required to address these health risks to be identified.

1. Discuss major risk factors identified in the assessment.
