The Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) is a systematic process involving the community to identify and analyze community health needs,prioritize needs and plan to act upon unmet community needs with a strategic action plan.The Advisory Committee is guiding this effort. The committee includes the City, Washington Township, each of the four major health systems: OSU, OhioHealth, Nationwide Children’s Hospital and Mt. Carmel Health System, mental health care providers, Dublin City Schools and various social service organizations that serve Dublin residents.
In early 2024, an Advisory Committee composed of the City of Dublin, Washington Township, Ohio State University, OhioHealth, Nationwide Children’s Hospital and Mt. Carmel Health System, mental health care providers, Dublin City Schools and a variety of social service organizations met to review the report and vote on the priority health needs to focus on throughout the Strategic Action Plan process.
The working group identified the following priority needs:
Community Connections — a desire to strengthen the sense of community. According to the representative survey, 43% of Dublin residents feel they belong in Dublin only moderately well, slightly well, or not well at all and 75% feel only moderately connected, slightly connected or not connected at all to their neighbors.
Youth Behavioral Health — create a collective-impact initiative focused on providing information to parents of Dublin youth. According to the qualitative research, adult and youth residents are concerned about youth mental health. The COVID-19 pandemic pressure to succeed/social comparisons contribute to declining mental health. There are also concerns about substance misuse among youth.
Healthcare Navigation — develop a centralized source of healthcare access information for Dublin residents. It was found that 16% of residents had difficulty getting physical or dental healthcare in the past year, and 15% of residents had difficulty getting mental healthcare in the past year.
Transportation — more reliable transportation. Research indicated that Dublin residents have challenges getting transportation for healthcare purposes, activities, or meeting basic needs.
The Strategic Action Plan goes to Dublin City Council in Q1 of 2025.
