The document summarizes evidence from the World report on ageing and health. It outlines a framework for action focused on functional ability and maximizing what older people can do. The goals are to shift healthcare from disease management to optimizing abilities, develop long-term care systems and age-friendly environments, and improve understanding and metrics around population aging. Investing in healthy aging means creating a future with greater freedom and ability for older people to live fulfilling lives.
The document summarizes evidence from the World report on ageing and health. It outlines that populations are aging more rapidly than ever before. While people are living longer, it is important that the additional years are spent in good health. The goal is to maximize functional ability for older adults. Key priorities for action include aligning health systems to focus on what people can do rather than disease, developing long-term care systems and age-friendly environments, and improving understanding of aging trajectories and health status of older populations. Investing in healthy aging will allow older adults greater freedom and ability to live fulfilling lives.
Global launch: Delivering prevention in an ageing worldILC- UK
It’s never too late to prevent ill health. And the health and economic costs of failing to invest in preventative interventions across the life course are simply too high to ignore.
At this event, we launched two new reports on what works in delivering a preventative approach to health in an ageing world; how we can improve take-up and adherence to preventative interventions; what we have learned from COVID-19; and how policymakers across the world need to act to ensure prevention becomes a priority as countries build back from the damage inflicted by the pandemic.
We were joined by a panel of experts from across the world to discuss the findings and what needs to happen next so we can move from consensus to action on prevention.
The document discusses different approaches to health including the biomedical, social and Ottawa Charter models. It describes Australia's health system involving roles of local, state and federal governments in areas like Medicare, PBS and private health insurance. Various government and non-government organizations are outlined that work to promote healthy eating through surveys, guidelines, legislation, and community programs.

This document discusses democratizing access to preventative healthcare. It identifies five key criteria: making prevention convenient through mobile clinics and home visits; ensuring costs are no barrier by reducing co-payments; tailoring prevention through apps and accessible technologies; improving health literacy through co-production with charities; and addressing ageism. The consultation focuses on the role of healthcare systems in G20 countries in promoting prevention across the life course, with attention to older adults.
This document summarizes a conference on harnessing health and wellbeing in older age. It discusses:
1) Presentations from experts on using innovation and collaboration across sectors to improve outcomes for older adults, such as developing digital health tools and exercise programs to prevent falls and strokes.
2) The concept of an "innovation ecosystem" to deliver solutions that improve lives and how these solutions can be scaled up. Examples of specific innovations developed in the North of England are mentioned.
3) The need for a common outcomes framework and additional funding to support preventative programs and a focus on living well in older age rather than just treating illness.

This document discusses strengthening community health ecosystems. It outlines a 5-step process:
1. Set target health outcomes
2. Understand existing community health components and how they currently deliver outcomes
3. Diagnose priorities by identifying bottlenecks in the current ecosystem and required domains of action (agency, access, resources)
4. Develop or strengthen programs to address priorities
5. Implement, monitor, and evaluate programs, setting target outcomes
The overall framework conceptualizes community health as a system with various interacting components, both health-specific and health-enabling, that need to work together to serve community members. It provides a way to structure discussions and decision-making to foster continuous improvement of community health.

2017 Popular Equity and Health HSC QuestionsVas Ratusau
The document discusses the social justice framework for analyzing health promotion initiatives. It explains that the social justice principles of equity, diversity, and supportive environments aim to decrease health inequities. The framework includes enabling, mediating, and advocating actions to improve health. Examples of each type of action are provided, such as empowering disadvantaged individuals or communities, improving access to services, and encouraging economic and cultural change. Students are asked to analyze how the "Close the Gap" scheme utilizes this framework and whether the Ottawa Charter is still needed when analyzing initiatives through this social justice lens. For homework, students must critically analyze a health promotion scheme aimed at a priority population using the social justice framework.
ILC-UK and the Actuarial Profession Debate: The Economics of Promoting Person...ILC- UK
ILC-UK is delighted to be working with Alliance Boots and the University College London School of Pharmacy to explore why public health has just got ‘personal’ and if such a trend will yield cost savings or cost some groups of society or sections of the economy more than others.
The event will also mark the launch of a report produced by Professor David Taylor and Dr Jennifer Gill from the UCL School of Pharmacy, supported by Alliance Boots entitled ‘Active Ageing: Live longer and prosper? Towards realising a second demographic dividend in 21st century Europe’.
The debate will focus on the balance between encouraging individual accountability and accepting collective responsibility for achieving longer lives and the consequent implications for health outcomes and cost.
The Coalition Government (like its predecessors) is trying to move away from the ‘nanny state’ towards ‘nudging’ people in the direction of choosing healthier behaviours.
Few people would question the desirability of encouraging more informed personal decision making to prevent avoidable illness. But too much reliance on individual choice and responsibility could fail those most at risk and potentially impose needless costs and losses on individuals, their families and the wider community. Promoting the behavioural and cultural changes needed to deliver better public health and keep NHS and social care costs as affordable as possible remains a pressing and complex challenge.
Subject areas to discuss will include:
The philosophical and political underpinnings of public health policy, including: social solidarity, fairness, entitlement, risk and personal responsibility. Are we in danger of unravelling the principle tenets of the Beveridge model welfare state in ways which may not only disadvantage the most vulnerable, but may in time increase financial pressures on other sectors of society?
Determining the boundaries of personal and societal level responsibility, and the legitimate as opposed to illegitimate need for publicly funded care and support. In areas ranging from smoking cessation to reducing the threat of an obesity driven diabetes epidemic, communities have to make tough choices between limiting risks and accepting the consequences of personal, social and corporate freedom.
The impact of current trends and possible future policy decisions in areas ranging from the costs of health and life insurance to the price of pensions for individuals and society.
The role of private employers in promoting and requiring healthy living.
The winners and losers if the trend towards personal responsibility continues, with particular regard to older people and disadvantaged groups and what impact could this trend have on the cost of care?

This document discusses community development and its potential benefits for improving population health outcomes. It summarizes the HELP (Health Empowerment Leveraging Partnerships) project approach, which involves working with local residents and services to tackle issues, build social networks and make services more responsive. Evidence suggests that stronger social networks can reduce mortality risk and help address health inequalities. The HELP model has led to improved outcomes such as more responsive local services and reductions in health indicators like CVD admissions. Cost-benefit analysis indicates the HELP approach can save money compared to the investment required.

Bristol - building a truly healthy city, pop up uni, 12.00, 3 september 2015NHS England
Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

2) Evidence shows multi-factorial programs that incorporate social, educational, physical activity, and participation components can provide the most benefits to healthy aging.
3) The Active Aging Framework provides guidance for understanding health in older adults and for developing broad-based health promotion programs.
This document provides an overview of population health, public health core functions and essential services, levels of prevention, and population-based interventions. It discusses that population health aims to improve health for entire populations. The three levels of prevention are primary, secondary, and tertiary. Population-based interventions target underlying risks and environmental factors affecting entire populations or at-risk groups. These interventions can occur at the systems, community, or individual level. The core functions of public health are assessment, policy development, assurance, and system management. The 10 essential public health services support these core functions.

Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido.

This presentation summarizes key findings and recommendations of the report.
We know that populations are getting older overall. The number of people aged 60 years or older will rise from 900 million to 2 billion between 2015 and 2050 (moving from 12% to 22% of the total global population). These two map shows how populations are changing in different countries around the world.
We also know that population ageing is happening much more quickly than in the past.
For example, while France had almost 150 years to adapt to a change from 10% to 20% in the proportion of the population that was older than 60 years, places such as Brazil, China and India will have slightly more than 20 years to make the same adaptation.
There are two key drivers of population ageing. The first is is falling fertility rates, and the second is people living longer overall.
Overall life expectancy for a baby born today is 71 years.
But a person who is currently 60 years of age can expect to live 20 years more, on average.
A longer life brings with it opportunities, not only for older people and their families, but also for societies as a whole. Additional years provide the chance to pursue new activities such as further education, a new career or pursuing a long neglected passion. Older people also contribute in many ways to their families and communities.
Yet the extent of these opportunities and contributions depends heavily on one factor: health.
Health in older age is not random.
Only a small proportion is due to genetic inheritance. Most is due to ongoing interactions between broader characteristics of individuals and the environments they inhabit.
Our personal characteristics include factors such as our sex and ethnicity, as well as our occupation, educational attainment, and wealth. These contribute to our social position and to our ability to access resources.
Our environments include our home, neighbourhood and community. Factors that influence ageing include where we live, our transportation options, and the health-care systems and long-term care systems that we can access.
The relationship we have with our environments varies according to many personal characteristics, including the family we were born into, our sex and our ethnicity. The influences of environments are often fundamentally skewed by these characteristics, leading to differences in how people age, and where these are unfair and avoidable, to health inequities.
Importantly, these factors start to interact with each other and to influence ageing from childhood, onwards. Indeed, a significant proportion of the vast diversity of capacity and circumstance that we see in older age is likely to be underpinned by the cumulative impact of person-environment interactions across the life course.
Biological ageing is only loosely associated with person age in years. Some 80 year-olds have physical and mental capacities similar to many 20 year-olds. Others experience declines in physical and mental capacities at much younger ages.
Although there is no typical older person, society often views older people in stereotypical ways that can lead to discrimination against individuals or groups simply on the basis of their age. This has been labelled ageism, and this may now be an even more pervasive form of discrimination than sexism or racism. One widespread ageist stereotype of older people is that they are dependent or a burden. This can lead to an assumptions during policy making that spending on older people is simply a drain on economies and to emphasize costs containment.
Lack of accessibility to housing, transportation, social facilities all limit older people's ability to participate.
Inadequate or absent service are widespread barriers. For example health systems are often designed to cure acute conditions or systems and manage health issues in disconnected and fragmented ways, that lack coordination across care providers, settings etc. Long-term care systems in many countries do not existing placing an unsustainable burden on families – most women -.
Lack of consultation and involvement of older people in the decisions that affect their lives.
In reality, older people make many positive contributions to society; and health and social care expenditures for older people are an investment rather than a cost. These investments bring benefits to older people and returns for society as a whole.
The goal of healthy ageing is to help people develop and maintain the functional ability that enables well-being.
This goal is relevant for every older person.
Functional ability requires efforts to build and maintain the physical and mental capacities across the life course and into older age and to provide the support a person needs to compensate for losses in these capacities that will likely occur over time.
Investing in both of these areas - maximizing capacity and ability– will enable older people to continue to do the things that are important to them. Maximizing functional ability is the primary goal of policies to promote healthy ageing.
Comprehensive public-health action on ageing is urgently needed. Although there are major knowledge gaps, we have sufficient evidence to act now, and there are things that every country can do, irrespective of their current situation or level of development.
Four priority areas for action can be identified:
aligning health systems with the needs of the older populations they now serve;
developing systems for providing long-term care;
creating age-friendly environments;
improving measurement, monitoring and understanding.
Health systems need to be realigned to the needs of the older populations they now serve. Most health systems around the world are ill-prepared to address the needs of older people, who often have multiple chronic conditions or geriatric syndromes. Systems must be capable of providing older person-centred and integrated care, and focus on maintaining capacities as people age.
1) The starting point will need to be to put older people at the centre of health care. This will require focusing on their unique needs and preferences, and including them as active participants in care planning and in managing their health states. But changes are needed to systems, too. Health services have to be better integrated between levels and across specialist groupings. Much better coordination is needed with long-term care systems, and possibly formal integration as well. Case management, support for self-management, and support for ageing in place need to be woven into the fabric of health care for older people.
2) Second, evidence suggests that focusing primarily on older people’s physical and mental capacities, and maximizing their ability to do the things that are most important to them, is more effective than prioritizing the management of specific chronic diseases. This is not to reject the worth of disease management, but rather to underscore that it is an older person’s physical and mental capacities that should be the targets of, and entry points for, health interventions. Approaching older people through the lens of intrinsic capacity and the environments in which they live helps ensure that services are oriented towards the outcomes that are most relevant to their daily lives.
3) Third, the health workforce needs to be better prepared to deliver older person-centred and integrated care. They need basic knowledge and skills in geriatrics, and they need to know how to work in integrated systems of care.
These changes appear to be both affordable and sustainable. Although much of the debate on population ageing assumes it will be associated with an unmanageable increase in the demand for services, the evidence suggests it will be a much less significant driver of inflation in health-care costs than factors such as new technologies and changes in clinical practice. The integrated and person-centred approaches outlined in report have been shown to not only have better outcomes for older people but also to be no more expensive than traditional services.
In the 21st century, all countries need an integrated system of long-term care. In low- and middle-income countries, the challenge may be to build a system where one does not already exist. In these settings, the responsibility for long-term care has often been left entirely to families. Socioeconomic development, population ageing and the changing roles of women mean that this practice is no longer sustainable or equitable.
Regardless of the setting, comprehensive systems of long-term care will be essential to meet the needs of older people, reduce inappropriate dependence on acute health services, help families avoid catastrophic care expenditures, and free women to play broader social roles.
1) Only governments can establish and steward long-term care systems as a whole. But this does not mean that they need to do everything. Each country will need to take stock of its unique situation to identify the best system for its context.
2) As with health systems, it will be crucial to develop a sustainable and appropriately trained workforce to provide long-term care. A crucial strategy for ensuring a sustainable workforce in the future will be to provide paid caregivers with the status and recognition that their contributions deserve.
3) The quality of long-term care can be improved by moving away from notions of long-term care as a minimal and basic safety net that provides rudimentary support to older people who can no longer look after themselves, towards a more positive and proactive agenda. Systems and caregivers need to look at how they can optimize both the older person’s capacity, and compensate for losses of capacity, in a way that maximizes dignity and choice.
We need to ensure everyone can grow old in age-friendly environments.
Creating environments that are truly age-friendly requires action in many sectors – health, long-term care, transport, housing, labour, social protection, information and communication – by many actors – government, service providers, civil society, older people and their organizations, families and friends. It also requires action at multiple levels of government.
1) Addressing ageism must lie at the core of any public health response to population ageing. Although this will be challenging, experiences combating other widespread forms of discrimination, such as sexism and racism, show that attitudes and norms can be changed.
2) Autonomy has been shown to have a powerful influence on older people’s dignity, integrity, freedom and independence, and has been repeatedly identified as a core component of their general well-being. Fundamentally, older people have a right to make choices and take control over a range of issues including where they live, the relationships they have, what they wear, how they spend their time and whether they undergo a treatment.
3) Finally, if the goals of Healthy Ageing are to be achieved, all government sectors need to consider their contribution to and impact on Healthy Ageing. National, regional, state or municipal ageing strategies and action plans can help to guide this intersectoral response, and ensure a coordinated approach that spans multiple sectors and levels of government.
Making progress on Healthy Ageing will require a far better understanding of age-related issues and trends. Many basic questions remain to be answered.
As a first step towards answering these, older people must be included in vital statistics and general population surveys, and analyses of these information resources should be disaggregated by age and sex. Appropriate measures of Healthy Ageing and its determinants and distributions will also need to be included in these studies. But research will also need to be encouraged in a range of specific fields related to ageing and health, and this will require agreement on key concepts and how they can be measured.
1) The current metrics and methods used in the field of ageing are limited, preventing a sound understanding of key aspects of Healthy Ageing. Often, appropriate methods do not yet exist. Sometimes, comprehensive approaches are used in other fields but not adapted to older populations. Consensus is needed on which approaches are most appropriate.
2) And, although general population-based research and surveillance need to place a greater emphasis on older people, specific population-based research about older people is also required.
3) Finally, fostering Healthy Ageing will require a much better understanding of common trajectories of ageing, including changes in capacity and ability over time.
So in summary, healthy ageing can be promoted through action in different areas and investing in Healthy Ageing means helping to create a future that gives older people the freedom to live lives that previous generations could never have imagined.
