This document discusses trends in second-hand smoke exposure among children and young people in Northern Ireland based on survey data. The key points are:
1. There has been a significant decline in the proportion of 11-16 year olds living with a smoker and experiencing smoking inside the home according to survey data from 2003-2013.
2. In 2013, 38.4% of 11-16 year olds lived with a smoker, and among these children, 41.7% reported smoking was allowed inside the home.
3. According to adult survey data from 2007/08 to 2012/13, the proportion of households where children lived that reported smoking was not allowed at all inside increased from 57% to

This document discusses the harms of underage drinking in Ireland. It reports that nearly half of Irish 15-16 year olds drink alcohol and over 40% engage in binge drinking. Alcohol is easily accessible to minors and is often obtained from peers, family members or retailers. The marketing of alcohol can influence youth drinking behaviors. Recommendations include stricter enforcement of alcohol sales to minors and regulation of alcohol marketing to reduce underage drinking.

Alcohol misuse and older people- Conor Breen, CARDIRoger O'Sullivan
Many public health campaigns on the misuse of alcohol are aimed at younger age groups. However, there is evidence that alcohol misuse is increasing in people over the age of 65. For a variety of reasons, alcohol misuse among these older people may go unnoticed (Department of Work and Pensions, 2013).
This edition of the CARDI “Focus on . . .” series looks at alcohol misuse among older people across the island of Ireland and asks if more could be done in policy and social work terms to address the associated health and welfare issues among older age groups.
The document provides fact sheets on sporting trends in various European countries based on Eurobarometer data. It summarizes key statistics on rates of regular sports participation, top barriers to exercise, popular locations and motivations for physical activity, and membership in sports clubs and gyms. There are significant differences between countries, such as Slovenia having the highest health-related motivation at 76% and Italy the lowest sports club membership at 6%. Overall, the document highlights national variations in sports engagement and barriers across Europe.
In this presentation Dr Jonathan Campion, Director of Public Mental Health and Consultant Psychiatrist, South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, shows how appropriate public mental health commissioning can prevent mental health problems, promote wellbeing and improve outcomes for services and the people who use them.

The document is a presentation on diabetes research findings from a survey of 1,000 Irish adults. Some key findings include:
- One third are concerned about getting diabetes, highest among those aged under 25.
- Over half know the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
- Most believe diabetes can be prevented, fewer believe it can be cured.
- Eight in ten consume confectionary snacks, highest among those aged under 25.
- Knowledge of daily sugar intake guidelines is low, especially for children.
- Warning labels influence most people's purchasing of sugary foods and drinks.

Adi Sankara Bhagavatpada was born at Kalady in Kerala in a Namboodiri Family. His mother was Aryamba and his father died very early. When he wanted to take up sanyasa very much against the will of her mother, she finally agreed with a condition, that He should be present near her death bed and also he should perform the obsequies. Sankara agreed for this and took up Sanyasa. When he was at Sringeri, he realized that his mother was nearing death and by the power given to him by God reached there immediately. He was near his mother at the time of her death and also performed the funeral ceremonies. It was at this time he wrote this five slokas which came out deep from his mind. This was possibly the only poem he wrote, which is not extolling any God and also not explaining his philosophy.
Mother has been extolled as a god form in several places in the puranas and also God has been approached as a son approaches his mother by many great savants. She is Dhatree (One who bears the child), Janani (one who gives birth to the child), Ambaa (One who nourishes the limbs of the child) and Veerasu (One who makes him a hero), Shusroo (One who takes care of him). But Sankara in these poems is not dealing either of God in the form of mother nor mother in the form of God. He laments to the lady who was his mother and points out how his conscience is pricking him for being not able to do the duty of a son.

The document provides audience feedback on a film trailer draft. It outlines both positive and negative feedback. Positives included the quick pace, well-timed ending, and variety of shots. Negatives were unrendered clips that need filling, a shaky shot that needs refilming, a fight scene punch that lacked realism, and a hugging clip that could be shortened. The feedback suggested establishing the main character more to improve understanding of the plot. The filmmakers will address issues and focus more on the main character in future filming sessions.

Describe and discuss the social determinants of child and adolescent.pdfsdfghj21
The social determinants of child and adolescent health include factors like socioeconomic status, access to healthcare, and the home and community environment. Poverty, lack of access to prenatal care and health insurance, and exposure to violence or substance abuse in the home or community can negatively impact child health outcomes. Maintaining good preconception, prenatal, and postnatal health helps set children up for long-term health and well-being. Public health programs aim to support families and improve conditions to promote optimal child development.

This document provides a summary of recommendations from a panel of Swiss pediatric hematologists on the diagnosis and management of iron deficiency in children. It discusses the epidemiology of iron deficiency as the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide. It describes symptoms of iron deficiency that can present with or without anemia, including fatigue, pallor, and neurological symptoms. The document also reviews the potential impact of iron deficiency on neurodevelopment and conditions like attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and restless legs syndrome. It provides consensus recommendations on evaluating and treating iron deficiency in children based on the available evidence.
The document discusses social determinants of health, noting that Americans are less healthy than people in many other countries in terms of life expectancy and infant mortality rates. It identifies personal behaviors, living and working conditions, community behaviors, and economic and social resources as key determinants of individual and population health. Personal health behaviors are influenced by education level, while community health is influenced by factors like parental education, family income, neighborhood environment, and access to resources.
The document is a report from the OECD titled "Health at a Glance 2015" that provides data on key health indicators across OECD countries. It includes sections on health status, risk factors, health workforce, health spending, and quality of care. Some of the key findings summarized are: average life expectancy has increased over 10 years to over 80 years across OECD countries; obesity and smoking rates have also risen but are declining in some countries; healthcare spending has grown but pharmaceutical spending has been cut in many countries through increased generic drug use; and countries vary in terms of physician and nurse pay and the proportion that are foreign-trained.
Franco Sassi: Obesity and the Economics of PreventionTHL
1. Childhood obesity is a major health challenge in Europe, affecting 21% of children, with rates up to 2.5 times higher among disadvantaged children.
2. Prevention strategies can improve health outcomes and reduce healthcare costs, though interventions targeting children may take many years to produce effects.
3. A multi-pronged approach combining initiatives across different groups through multi-stakeholder collaboration may be most effective in addressing obesity.

Smoking, drinking and drug use by young people in EnglandMentor
This document summarizes data on smoking, drinking, and drug use among young people in England. It finds that while these behaviors have generally been decreasing among youth, many still engage in risky behaviors. Cannabis is the most commonly used illegal drug. Factors like family environment, personality traits, and peer influences can increase youths' risk, while protective factors like strong family relationships and doing well in school can decrease risk. Schools are encouraged to help keep students safe through education programs.
David Buck’s slidepack sets out some basic statistics on the state of the English population’s health, including life expectancy, health inequalities and tobacco and alcohol use.
This document discusses health inequalities related to smoking. It notes that smoking rates are higher among socioeconomically disadvantaged groups and this contributes to inequalities in cancer rates and life expectancy. Smoking is associated with accumulated health risks over a lifetime. Those from more disadvantaged backgrounds are more likely to start smoking at a younger age, smoke more heavily, and are less likely to successfully quit. Addressing tobacco-related health inequalities requires a comprehensive approach that considers industry targeting of vulnerable groups and provides improved access to smoking cessation resources.

This document summarizes a presentation on innovations in modern child and adolescent public health. It discusses how child public health began as a social innovation over 100 years ago to address high mortality and health issues. It then outlines several areas where further innovation is needed, including more tailored and preventative approaches. Specific innovations proposed include personalized monitoring tools, e-health platforms to provide health education and early detection, and predictive models to inform targeted prevention strategies. The presentation argues that continued innovation is essential to address ongoing challenges and integrate health and social care for children and adolescents.

The UK performs middling to low on key health benchmarks compared to other OECD countries, according to a new OECD report. While the UK excels in access to care, having low out-of-pocket costs and unmet medical needs, it lags in health outcomes like life expectancy and cancer survival rates. Additionally, high rates of smoking, drinking and obesity undermine population health. The UK also has mediocre quality of care outcomes despite being a leader in quality policies. While per capita health spending is average for the OECD, it is below top spending countries and growth has been flat in recent years.
This compares the 20 richest nations in the degree to which their policies are compassionate. The policies cover child well-being, health, environment, non-violence, integrity, social justice, civil society, and generosity.

Social work research faces several challenges, including differing local and national research cultures, late entry into research careers, social work being subordinate to other disciplines, insular communities, lack of research skills and networks, and keeping up with technological changes. The document discusses responding to these challenges by fostering social justice and understanding through research, finding ways to work across differences in methodology and disciplines, and examining the relationship between practice and research.
This document discusses the relationship between social work and sociology in the early 20th century. It notes that sociologists accessed urban life through social work agency records and case studies. The case method was seen as important for sociological research in understanding community and group processes. Social workers began using casebooks around 1900 which grew from charity organization work. Both fields saw value in the case method for understanding individuals in their social contexts. The document examines debates between early social work thinkers and sociologists on how to record and interpret case information in ways that were sociologically and clinically useful.
This document summarizes Ian Shaw's presentation titled "The Academization of the Professions" given on July 3, 2012. It discusses how professional practice poses challenges to disciplinary work rather than being simply based on it. It also notes the inevitable but risky nature of emphasizing professional distinctives. Shaw argues for a relation between fields that is like adjacent open systems with intellectual reciprocity based on egalitarian respect.
This document summarizes Ian Shaw's workshop on "Evaluating in Practice: Interrupting, Translating and Inhabiting Qualitative Inquiry as Professional Practice" presented at the European Conference for Social Work Research in Oxford, 2011. Shaw discusses evaluating qualitative social work as a form of "methodological practice" that should occur at every phase, not just the end, of a project. He also outlines four common problems with how research and practice are conceived, and proposes commitments and skills like translating, counter-colonizing, and inhabiting to address these issues. Finally, the document provides examples of exercises Shaw discussed for using methods like visual techniques, narrative, and ethnography in social work evaluation and practice.
This document summarizes Ian Shaw's career path from being a probation officer to a professor focusing on social work research. It discusses his passions for writing, qualitative research methodology, and collaborating with others. It outlines some of his joys, such as writing with his daughter, founding journals, and resisting government pressure. Finally, it provides a short list of Shaw's publications.
This document summarizes Ian Shaw's 2011 presentation on the challenges of life from a global perspective. Shaw discusses various global challenges like climate change, terrorism, and economic recession. He also examines how events in distant locations can impact local life due to increased globalization and connectivity. Shaw explores debates around whether globalization has increased social polarization, the loss of state power, and the impact of issues like poverty, migration and drug trade across borders. He notes challenges this poses for achieving global social justice. Finally, Shaw reflects on how to balance global and local approaches in fields like social work, education and welfare.
This document summarizes Hannah Jobling's research on Community Treatment Orders (CTOs) in England and Wales. The research uses ethnographic methods to understand how CTOs are implemented in practice and their implications. It develops a typology of CTOs based on service user engagement (active, passive, resistant) and goals (acceptance, resistance). Case studies illustrate different experiences, influenced by context and relationships. The research aims to understand CTO outcomes based on how individuals interpret and respond to interventions, given their personal experiences and beliefs. It concludes CTO success and failure cannot be simply judged and outcomes should be viewed broadly, beyond effectiveness.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable.

ENGLISH CHILD HEALTH IS DIRE
Jonathan Bradshaw
The Royal York Hotel
18 March 2010
2. Summary
If we look at trend data – the main child health
indicators are improving
But we should be very worried about
Those that are not improving
The inequalities in outcomes – especially spatially
Our comparative position is dire
What needs to be done
3. Evidence base
York books monitoring child well-being
York comparative work on child well-being
UNICEF Report Card 7 (2007)
Child Wellbeing in the EU29 (2009)
OECD (2009)

4. Child health is improving
Infant mortality (and its components)
Low birth weight
Child deaths
Child accidents and injuries
Self reported health of children
Sexual competence of young people
Teenage conceptions
Smoking
But for some the improvements are
miniscule
5. Not improving
Parental assessments of child health
Infectious diseases
Early sex and sexually transmitted diseases
Diabetes and Asthma
Obesity
Drinking
Drugs
Mental health
Subjective well-being?
6. Inequalities
Almost all child health indicators strongly
associated with poverty/class/inequality
Inequalities not falling – despite targets
Here are some data

Alcohol pricing, food advertising
Breast feeding
But key to progress is child poverty and inequality
Child poverty strategy
