CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSISLOUISIANA PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE (LPHI) UTILIZED MIXED METHODS TO UNDERSTAND AND DOCUMENT COMMUNITY FEEDBACK AND PERSPECTIVES BY TRIANGULATING PRIMARY QUALITATIVE DATA FROM INTERVIEWS AND FOCUS GROUPS, SECONDARY QUANTITATIVE DATA FROM EXISTING DATA SOURCES, AND ADDITIONAL QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DATA COLLECTED THROUGH AN ONLINE COMMUNITY SURVEY. HEALTH EQUITY WAS CENTRAL TO BOTH THE DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS PROCESSES. SECONDARY DATA WERE ANALYZED BY RACE WHENEVER POSSIBLE. PRIMARY DATA COLLECTION FOCUSED ON GATHERING VOICES OF POPULATIONS OF INTEREST FOR HOSPITALS INCLUDING AGING AND NON-ENGLISH SPEAKING. FINDINGS FROM THESE COMMUNITIES WERE INCORPORATED THROUGHOUT THE CHNA. HEALTH CONCERNS REGARDING CHILDREN IN THE GNO AREA WERE HIGHLIGHTED SINCE THEY ARE THE MAIN COMMUNITY SERVED BY CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL.SECONDARY DATASECONDARY DATA FROM NATIONAL AND STATEWIDE DATABASES, SUCH AS AMERICAN COMMUNITY SURVEY (ACS) AND BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM (BRFSS), WERE COMPILED AND ANALYZED TO IDENTIFY KEY CONCERNS IN THE GNO AREA AND SUPPLEMENT FINDINGS FROM PRIMARY DATA SOURCES. THE INDICATOR LIST FOR SECONDARY DATA WAS DEVELOPED TO ALIGN WITH THE COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS INDICATOR MODEL. DATA WERE EXTRACTED AT THE PARISH-LEVEL AND LOUISIANA AVERAGES WERE USED AS A BASELINE FOR COMPARISON. ADDITIONALLY, DATA WAS DISAGGREGATED BY RACE/ ETHNICITY WHERE POSSIBLE. A FULL LIST OF DATA INDICATORS AND SOURCES CAN BE FOUND IN APPENDIX G: SECONDARY DATA SOURCES.COMMUNITY SURVEYPRIMARY DATA COLLECTION FOR THE CHNA INCLUDES DATA FROM 1,400 SURVEY RESPONSES, 20 INTERVIEWS, AND 5 FOCUS GROUPS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND EXPERTS RESIDING IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA.

HOWEVER, ELEMENTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY ARE INCORPORATED INTO OUR TRAUMA INJURY PREVENTION PROGRAM AND BROADER COMMUNITY SAFETY INITIATIVES, WHICH PROMOTE SAFER HOME AND COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENTS FOR CHILDREN. AFFORDABILITY OF CARE: AFFORDABILITY IS A CORE PRIORITY INTEGRATED THROUGHOUT ALL PROGRAMS. WE INCREASE ACCESS TO CARE FOR UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED POPULATIONS THROUGH INITIATIVES LIKE THE ACADEMIC CLINIC, THE THRIVEKIDS SCHOOL WELLNESS PROGRAM, THE GREATER NEW ORLEANS IMMUNIZATION NETWORK (GNOIN), AND SLIDING FEE-SCALE HOUSING OPTIONS THROUGH HOGS HOUSE AND RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE.MATERNAL & INFANT HEALTH SERVICES: DUE TO RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS AND THE AVAILABILITY OF OTHER COMMUNITY RESOURCES MORE SPECIFICALLY FOCUSED ON MATERNAL HEALTH, WE DID NOT PRIORITIZE MATERNAL AND INFANT HEALTH AS A STANDALONE FOCUS. HOWEVER, RELATED NEEDS ARE INDIRECTLY SUPPORTED THROUGH PEDIATRIC ACCESS INITIATIVES AND EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT EDUCATION.SEXUAL HEALTH SERVICES: SEXUAL HEALTH SERVICES WERE NOT PRIORITIZED AS A STANDALONE INITIATIVE DUE TO RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS.CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION: CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION EFFORTS ARE EMBEDDED ACROSS OUR INITIATIVES RATHER THAN ISOLATED AS A SEPARATE FOCUS AREA. PROGRAMS SUPPORTING THIS GOAL INCLUDE THRIVEKIDS' SCHOOL-BASED WELLNESS PROGRAMMING, THE PARENTING CENTER'S CAREGIVER EDUCATION PROGRAMS, EXPANDED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND PRIMARY CARE ACCESS THROUGH ACADEMIC CLINIC AND THRIVEKIDS, AND THE FOOD PANTRY PROGRAM, WHICH SUPPORTS IMPROVED NUTRITION AND ADDRESSES FOOD INSECURITY AS A DRIVER OF CHRONIC DISEASE.

PART VI, LINE 5:	IN MARCH OF 1998, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES RECOGNIZED THAT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, WITH ITS RICHNESS OF TALENT AND PROGRAMS AND ITS FINANCIAL RESOURCES, WAS WELL POSITIONED TO IDENTIFY AND ADDRESS OBSTACLES TO THE WELFARE OF THE COMMUNITY'S CHILDREN. AN AD HOC COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD, LATER ESTABLISHED AS A STANDING COMMITTEE, WAS CHARGED WITH DEVELOPING AND MONITORING ALL COMPONENTS OF THE PLAN. TO THAT END, THE FOLLOWING REPRESENTS THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL. THE MISSION OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN'S PROGRAMS IS TO ELIMINATE BARRIERS TO THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF INFANTS, CHILDREN, AND ADOLESCENTS IN THE COMMUNITY, PARTICULARLY THE NON-SERVED OR UNDERSERVED, BY EVALUATING, DEVELOPING, IMPLEMENTING, AND/OR PARTNERING ON INITIATIVES IN THE AREAS OF HEALTH CARE, HEALTH EDUCATION, HEALTH RESEARCH AND CHILD AND FAMILY HEALTH ADVOCACY.

THE PLAN PROVIDES FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF ADVOCACY PROGRAMS TO SUPPORT THE NEEDS OF AT-RISK CHILDREN AND SUPPORT PEDIATRIC RESEARCH IN ORDER TO EXPAND MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE AND TREATMENT OPTIONS. IT PERIODICALLY ASSESSES AVAILABLE COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND DETERMINES GAPS IN SERVICE FOR POTENTIAL NEW PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL DEFINES COMMUNITY BROADLY AS IT SERVES A LARGE GEOGRAPHIC REGION. PARTICULARLY, EMPHASIS IS PLACED ON SERVICES FOR THE NEW ORLEANS METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREA. A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF THE PATIENTS WHO UTILIZE HOSPITAL SERVICES RESIDE IN THIS AREA AND ARE THE MOST LIKELY BENEFICIARIES OF PROGRAMS ESTABLISHED. ANY PROGRAM THAT SIGNIFICANTLY AND MEASURABLY CONTRIBUTES TO THE PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING OF INFANTS, CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS, AND THEIR FAMILIES IS CONSIDERED A BENEFIT. THIS IMPLIES A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ORGANIZATIONS THAT IS CHARACTERIZED BY MUTUAL COOPERATION AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE SPECIFIED GOALS WHEREIN CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL MAINTAINS THE AUTHORITY FOR OVERALL PROGRAM DIRECTION AND FISCAL MANAGEMENT. BY THIS DEFINITION, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL WILL NOT ACT AS A GRANTING AGENCY. IN ADDITION, ONLY NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR PARTNERING. ANY EXCEPTION WILL REQUIRE THE FULL APPROVAL OF THE COMMITTEE AND BOARD. SEE ALSO PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN SCH 0, STATEMENTS 3 AND 4 AS WELL AS PART VI, LINE 6.
