Community Health Needs Assessment

Demonstrating Community Need 

As part of the Affordable Care Act, tax-exempt hospitals are required to complete a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) once every three years. In 2025, a CHNA was conducted, in conjunction with River Valley Family Health Center, that identified the greatest health needs in our community. The 2025 report includes a comprehensive assessment of Delta County, Colorado.

The analyses include a careful review of the most current health data available, demographics and input from numerous community representatives. The process culminates in the development of an Implementation Plan to address the significant needs identified through the CHNA. The CHNA and Implementation Plan report was presented to and approved by the Hospital Board on January 13, 2026. Delta Health will utilize its 2025 plan as a guide over the next three years to offer programs that support the health of the community and the mission of the organization.
