Community Health Needs Assessments (CHNAs) have the potential to be powerful drivers to enhance the health of communities. In this webinar, a new comprehensive model for effectively involving patients and community members throughout the entire CHNA process was presented. Making community and patient engagement a central component of the CHNA process can be mutually beneficial to hospitals and communities alike. Incorporating patient-centered outcomes research also has the potential to support the creation of CHNAs and improvement strategies to address identified needs.

• Highlight the importance of engaging patients and community members in CHNAs
• Offer a model for effective patient and community engagement when creating CHNAs
• Build the case for inclusion of Patient-Centered Outcomes Research into CHNAs
• Discuss research from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) that can be useful for CHNAs
• Describe the channels through which PCORI is disseminating this relevant research
