Annual Public Health Report 2018

The focus of this year’s APHR is ‘Healthy Ageing: Working together to improve wellbeing in later life’.

The concept of healthy ageing captures the broad range of factors that influence the health and wellbeing of older adults, including the wider determinants of wellbeing. This year’s annual report summarises what we know about older adults living in Camden and Islington, and their health, wellbeing and quality of life.

The report considers the current challenges and opportunities under each of the following four key themes:
• Quality of life, including being connected and feeling valued
• Environments that promote and support healthy ageing
• Key life transitions into and during older age
• Accessible, responsive and joined up health and care services when needed.

今年APHR的焦点为‘健康老龄化：携手共进，提升晚年生活质量’。健康老龄化的概念涵盖了影响老年人健康与福祉的广泛因素，包括福祉的更广泛决定因素。本年度年报总结了关于居住在Camden和Islington的老年人及其健康、福祉和生活质量的我们所知。报告针对以下四个关键主题下的当前挑战和机遇进行了探讨：
• 生活质量，包括保持联系和感受到重视
• 促进和支持健康老龄化的环境
• 老龄期及进入老龄期的关键生活转变
• 当需要时，可获取、响应和协同一致的健康与护理服务。
