Community Health Assessments: access to local population health information

by carol_friesen＠umanitoba.ca

Community Health Assessments (CHAs) are reports created by each Regional Health Authority (RHA) in Manitoba and disseminated by Manitoba Health. The 2010 editions of each CHA are available online and in print at the Neil John Maclean Health Sciences Library (along with at the Elizabeth Dafoe Library, the University College of the North in The Pas, and at Manitoba's Legislative Library). Click here[1] for more information on CHAs. CHAs from each RHA can be found in the University of Manitoba's library catalogue[2] (by searching for "community health assessment"; entries include print and online information.) There is also a CHA report for CancerCare Manitoba. The online versions are also available on the websites for each RHA: * Assiniboine RHA[3] * Brandon RHA[4] * Burntwood RHA[5] * Central RHA[6] * Churchill RHA[7] * Interlake RHA[8] * Norman RHA[9] * North Eastman RHA[10] * Parkland RHA[11] * South Eastman RHA[12] * Winnipeg RHA[13] * CancerCare[14] Have a wonderful long weekend!
