Waco-McLennan County Trended Health Report 2016

The Waco-McLennan County Public Health District has constructed this report with the objective of creating a tool that local entities can use to further identify the health status and needs of McLennan County residents. This Health Report is an addendum to the 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). It encompasses trended data on various health areas and includes maps based on certain health questions. The included trended data is from the 2013 and 2016 Community Health Needs Assessments. Questions which were able to be trended related to the Prosper Waco health working groups goals are noted throughout the document. If a goal is not attached to the question it does not directly relate to the Prosper Waco initiatives goals; however, it was able to be trended and considered important to include. Additionally, highlighted information from local community surveys conducted in zip code 76704 in 2015 and zip code 76706 in 2016 is included in the report. Lastly, an overview of McLennan County’s health status and rank from 2010 to 2016 obtained from Robert Wood Johnson Foundation County Health Rankings can be found at the end of the report. This Trended Health Report will be updated on the Health District website (www.wacomclennanphd.org) as new information is collected or analyzed. Read the report here.
