Example from Cheshire East 199220122031 Births 4186 4013 ↓ 9.6% Deaths 3780 3420 ↓ 9.0% Population 342k 371k ↑ 8.3% Smokers 28% 17% ↓ 40% Heart adm. 1347 1209 ↓ 10% Lung cancer 216 246 ↑ 14% Bowel cancer 160 267 ↑ 67% 374 Breast cancer 165 323 ↑ 96% 481 Diabetics 5581 17268 ↑ 309% 28955 Drug users 319 1139 ↑ 380% 1959 During the next twenty years there will be substantial rises in the number of people over 80, and fewer people aged 30 to 55
Implications of an aging population • More dementia • Increased cancer • Increased comorbidity • Loss of function
: Warrington • In 2012, 6.8% adults estimated to have diabetes, • by 2020, if current trends continue this could be 7.6% • by 2030, 8.5%
Cancer key facts- Cheshire East 44% rise in cancer over next 10 years (ageing and PREVENTABLElifestyle factors) 13/15th when compared to similar LAs Early detection of cancer may not be improving Challenge of Bowel Screening
Where are we now? • April 2012 – the All Party Parliamentary Group on Primary Care & Public Health held a roundtable discussion on: Ten years on from Wanless, how “fully-engaged” are we? • some success in meeting smoking cessation targets • but a rise in other serious public health challenges (obesity, alcohol) • huge reductions in treatment waiting times (although is this changing?) • but GP consultation rates have risen as people still do not self-care • no shift in resources out of hospitals • no switch of activity from GPs to pharmacies • we still do not have no good information to support personal decisions and the ability to have consistency of care • ‘’ the rhetoric of engagement has risen – but paternalistic services continue and the public remains dependent on these’’
What can we do???? • Move from cure to prevention • People at the centre, instead of “what's the matter” ask “what matters to you” • Healthy people, healthy place, healthy communities • Healthy policy (health equity and health impact) • Collaboration (service improvement, efficiency, resilience) • Agree priorities for action
Making the most of the opportunities Case study: Alcohol
