Back in
Time
to1842
Origins of Public Health “That the various forms of epidemic, endemic, and other disease caused, or aggravated,
or propagated chiefly amongst the labouring classes by atmospheric impurities produced
by decomposing animal and vegetable substances, by damp and filth, and close and
overcrowded dwellings prevail amongst the population in every part of the kingdom,
whether dwelling in separate houses, in rural villages, in small towns, in the larger towns
— as they have been found to prevail in the lowest districts of the metropolis.”
“That such disease, wherever its attacks are frequent, is always found in connexion with
the physical circumstances above specified, and that where those circumstances are
removed by drainage, proper cleansing, better ventilation, and other means of
diminishing atmospheric impurity, the frequency and intensity of such disease is abated;
and where the removal of the noxious agencies appears to be complete, such disease
almost entirely disappears.”
Edwin Chadwick Report...from the Poor Law Commissioners on an Inquiry into the Sanitary
Conditions of the Labouring Population of Great Britain [online source]. London, 1842, pp. 369-
372.]
“That the younger population, bred up under noxious physical agencies, is inferior in
physical organization and general health to a population preserved from the
presence of such agencies.”
“That the population so exposed is less susceptible of moral influences, and the
effects of education are more transient than with a healthy population.”
“That these adverse circumstances tend to produce an adult population short-lived,
improvident, reckless, and intemperate, and with habitual avidity for sensual
gratifications.”

“Health is as a positive concept
that emphasises social and
personal resources, as well as
physical capabilities. It involves
the capacity of individuals to
function and to cope with their
social and physical
environment, as well as with
specific illnesses and with life
in general” (WHO, 1984; Baggott,
1994).
Health and its determinants
JSNA What’s One of Those Then?
Our health, our care, our say white paper:
• identified the need for directors of:
• public health
• adult social services
• children’s services
to undertake regular strategic needs assessments of
the health and wellbeing status of their populations
• Need for joint planning and understanding
JSNA What’s One of Those Then?
“JSNA is a process that will identify the
current and future health and wellbeing
needs of a local population… leading to
agreed commissioning priorities that will
improve outcomes and reduce health
inequalities.” Department of Health (2007)
Guidance on Joint Strategic Needs Assessment
Describes a process that identifies current
and future health and wellbeing needs in
light of existing services, and informs future
service planning taking into account
evidence of effectiveness.
• Identifies the “big picture” in terms of the
health and wellbeing needs and
inequalities of a local population.
• Assists commissioning services and
interventions that will achieve better health
and wellbeing outcomes and reduce
inequalities
JSNA What’s One of Those Then?
The Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 Section 116 specifies that local authorities
and Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) produce a Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) of the health and
wellbeing of the local community
“The Department of Health expects local
authorities to commission on an ‘any willing
provider’ basis and they will work to ensure that
voluntary, community and social enterprise
organisations are supported to play a full part in
providing services.”

Public Health Outcomes Framework
Main Aims
Increased healthy life expectancy.
Reduced differences in life expectancy
and healthy life expectancy between
communities
Four Domains of Indicators
1. Improving the wider determinants of health
2. Health improvement
3. Health protection
4. Healthcare public health and preventing premature mortality
Framework will operate from April 2013
An example There is an eight year
gap in male life
expectancy between St
Pancras and Somers
Town wards and
Hampstead
3.5
miles!
An example
a seven year gap in
female life expectancy
between Hampstead and
Kentish Town.
2 miles!
In Most Authorities
There is at least a 7
year gap between the
most and least deprived
Wards!
EH Indicators
The percentage of the population affected by noise
Fuel poverty
Smoking prevalence – adult (over 18s) Smoking prevalence – 15 year olds
Air pollution
Public sector organisations with board approved sustainable development management plan
Comprehensive, agreed inter-agency plans for responding to public health incidents

Where Does Your Service Fit In
The Health Jigsaw?
Need v Demand Know your population
• How many people at risk?
• What is the structure of the
population at risk?:
• Age
• Sex
• Ethnicity
• What is the deprivation status
of those at risk?
Are You in a Position to
Say No?
In Conclusion - JSNA
And God said, 'Let there be light' and there was light, but the Electricity Board said He would have
to wait until Thursday to be connected. – Spike Milligan
.
•Identifies the most important needs within
a population for the wider determinants of
health
E.g. housing quality is more of a priority
than stroke
•Measures need (not demand!)
•Measures, understands and articulates the
needs of individuals, groups and
populations relating to the wider
determinants of health and wellbeing.
• Sets priorities for partners to work together
to address
“The price of a good sanitary environment and the control of pestilence is
eternal vigilance on the part of the medical officer of health. The promotion of
health in a community -in the home, at work, and at play - demands his
constant attention, in co-operation with the sociologist; and education in health
needs for its fulfilment a completely new approach, with teacher, psychologist,
and health officer in joint harness.”
“In fact, when the prospects of a true health service, relieved of the burden of
the medical care of the sick, are properly examined, one is amazed and
enchanted by the gleaming horizon”.
