London Homeless Health Needs Assessment Toolkit (.ppsx)This is an interactive guide designed to support local authorities, clinical commissioning groups, and integrated care systems across London to conduct a homeless health needs assessment.
Conducting a health needs assessment is key to developing and delivering integrated care. Local Authorities must do a Joint Strategic Needs Assessment of the health and wellbeing of their local population. This includes assessing health needs of people who are or have been homeless.
