Social Determinants of Health 2nd Edition. Joseph Rowntree Foundation. [7] The most influential proximal determinant has proven to be family affluence. When analysis is focused on the 19 to 24 year age group to account for the age changes in compulsory education, the proportion of young adults who were NEET in 2016 was higher at 13.4%, but the overall trend showed a continuing decline from 2012 (16.4%)[footnote 13]. [56] Deciles are calculated by ranking local authorities’ IMD scores from most deprived to least deprived and dividing into 10 equal groups. [1] Education helps the impoverished develop usable skills, abilities, and resources that help individuals reach goals, including bettering health. [10] Having sufficient access to a minimum amount of food that is nutritious and sanitary plays an important part in building health and reducing disease transmission. [48] The death rate of adults 25 to 64 years old was 32% higher among rural residents than those of suburban counties and of urban counties. PHE has a statutory duty to have due regard to reducing health inequalities within England (Health and Social Care Act 2012), and like other public sector organisations, to promote equality (Equality Act 2010). Public Health England and the Institute of Health Equity. (2017) Why we need more social housing. [10]Housing, including size, quality, ventilation, crowding, sanitation, and separation, prove paramount in determining health and spread of disease. "[1] Social determinants of disease can be attributed to broad social forces such as racism, gender inequality, poverty, violence, and war. [4] The consequences of structural violence is post pronounced in the world's poorest countries and greatly affects the provision of clinical services in these countries. [1] Those in the lowest economic distribution of health, marginalized and excluded, and countries whose historical exploitation and inequality in global institutions of power and policy-making, suffer the worst health outcomes. The social rented sector had the lowest proportion of non-decent homes (15%) and almost a fifth (19%) of owner-occupied homes failed to meet the standard. Structural determinants include societal divisions between social, economic, and political contexts, and lead to differences in power, status, and privilege within society. ↩. 4.Patient advocacy. [51] These basic social needs that influence social environment include food security, housing, education, transportation, healthcare access and more factors that can affect health. The Marmot Review sets out 10 key components of good work that protect and promote good health. [10] Household discrimination causes missing girls at birth, and the persistence of discrimination and poor service delivery perpetuates high female mortality. (2014) Reducing the number of young people not in employment, education or training. Nambiar questions whether cash incentive schemes really go to the heart of the matter. The U.S. had the highest rate of uninsured people, and the highest health care costs, of all industrialized nations at the time. ↩, The decent homes standard is based on four criteria, of which one is the need to meet the minimum standard for housing. [53] It concludes that the program does have enthusiastic impacts on clients and volunteers' overall wellness. Social factors influencing young people therefore need to be analysed in the context of the current political, social and economic climate. Parent's education level also determines child health, survival, and their educational attainment (Caldwell, 1986; Cleland & Van Ginneken, 1988). [54] Another example of a utilized social service program in Northern California is the UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland Find Program. 3.Health services accessibility. Significant expansion of the private rented sector in the last 20 years (from 10% to 19%), has provided an additional 2.5 million homes. Accessed 14 June 2017. According to Ward, poverty is the strongest predictor of insufficient prenatal care,[14] which is caused by three factors that reduce access. [13][5], Prenatal care also plays a role in the health of women and their children, with excess infant mortality in impoverished populations and nations representing these differentials in health. Absolute poverty is the severe deprivation of basic human needs such as food, safe drinking water and shelter, and is used as a minimum standard below which no one should fall regardless of where they live. According to US HHS, "In 2009, children 6–17 years of age were more likely to be uninsured than younger children, and children with a family income below 200% of the poverty level were more likely to be uninsured than children in higher-income families. [4] Structural violence is structural because the causes of misery are "embedded in the political and economic organization of our social world; they are violent because they cause injury to people. The rate of school readiness has improved in recent years from just under a half of children in the academic year 2012 to 2013 (48.3%) not achieving a good level of development, to just under a third of all children (30.7%) in 2015 to 2016.

[1] Equity in living conditions, such as access to quality housing and clean water and hygiene, have been greatly degraded in urban areas by increasing car dependence, land use for roads, inconvenience of non-car transportation, air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, and lack of physical activity (NHF, 2007). In many post-transition countries, like the Russian Federation, excess female mortality is not a problem, but rather there has been an increase in mortality risks for men. [48] In 1997 in the United States, 18% of adults in rural areas had chronic health conditions, compared to only 13% of suburban adults. The quality of available work can also play a part in health outcomes both physically and mentally.

Only a third (33.1%) achieved 5 good GCSEs (including maths and English), while nearly twice as many (60.9%) pupils not eligible for free school meals attained this level (figure 3). [7] Additionally, proximal determinants such as school and household environments are influenced by stratification created by structural determinants, can also affect adolescent health. [59], In impoverished communities, different social norms and stressors exist than in other populations, which can greatly affect health outcomes in disadvantaged populations. "Globally, girls missing at birth and deaths from excess female mortality after birth add up to 6 million women a year, 3.9 million below the age of 60. Social determinants can have differential effects on health outcomes based on age group. ↩, Cutler DM, Lleras-Muney A. [1] In 1985, The World Health Organization estimated that maternal mortality rates were 150 times higher in developing countries than developed nations. Self-reported work-related illness has been falling gradually in England over the last decade from 4,290 per 100,000 employees in the financial year 2012 to 2013 to 3,990 employees per 100,000 in 2014 to 2015[footnote 16].

[4] The determinants of disease and their outcome are set by the social factors, usually rampant with structural violence, that determine risk to be infected with the disease. Department for Education. Parents and Home 4. [1] According to the WHO,13500 people die from smoking every day, and soon it will become the leading cause of death in developing countries, just as in high income countries. [7] There exist two main determinants of health: structural and proximal determinants. The World Health Organization defines the social determinants of health as "the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age" ,[7] conditions that are determined by the distribution of money, power, and resources at global, national, and local levels. [20] Family affluence also influences participation in regular physical activity. (2002) Housing and Health: Time Again for Public Health Action. Children growing up in more deprived areas often suffer disadvantages throughout their lives, from educational attainment through to employment prospects, which in turn affect physical and mental wellbeing. [1] Urbanization is immensely altering public health problems, particularly for the poor, by directing it towards non-communicable diseases, accidental and violent injuries, and death and health impacts from ecological disaster. PEST analysis (political, economic, socio-cultural and technological) describes a framework of macro-environmental factors used in the environmental scanning component of strategic management.It is part of an external analysis when conducting a strategic analysis or doing market research, and gives an overview of the different macro-environmental factors to be taken into consideration. Around 80% of self-reported work-related conditions in 2015 to 2016 were musculoskeletal and mental health disorders such as stress, depression and anxiety[footnote 17]. Health care costs can pose absolutely serious threats to impoverished populations, especially in countries without proper social provisions. [1] The challenges of urban areas, such as high population density, crowding, unsuitable living conditions, and little social support, provide a special challenge to the disabled and populations in low and middle income countries(Frumkin et al., 2004). [6] Measurements of health take several forms including subjective health reports completed by individuals and surveys that measure physical impairment, vitality and well being, diagnosis of serious chronic disease, and expected life longevity.[1]. Proximal determinants are immediate factors present in daily life such as family and household relationships, peer and work relationships, and educational environments. [15], With respect to socioeconomic factors, poor institutions of public health and services can cause worse health in women. [14] Medicaid and maternity coverage structures have complex and time-consuming registration processes, along with long waits and unsure eligibility. Focus on Ethnicity’[footnote 7]. As stated in Global Health Promotion, over the last 10 years there has been a steady loss of health coverage for 1 million people every year.

This chapter presents indicators of social determinants that influence health across the life course drawn from various (Public Health England) PHE tools. Source: Wider Determinants of Health Profile. [1] Life expectancy variation between countries can be partially attributed to the type of political regime, whether that be fascist, communist, conservative, or social-democratic.

Coronavirus (COVID-19): guidance and support, Transparency and freedom of information releases, personal characteristics occupy the core of the model and include sex, age, ethnic group, and hereditary factors, individual ‘lifestyle’ factors include behaviours such as smoking, alcohol use, and physical activity, social and community networks include family and wider social circles, living and working conditions include access and opportunities in relation to jobs, housing, education and welfare services, general socioeconomic, cultural and environmental conditions include factors such as disposable income, taxation, and availability of work, the rate of school readiness has improved in recent years, but around a third (30.7%) of all children did not reach a good level of development in 2015 to 2016, 14% of children in England were eligible for free school meals (a proxy for low household income); Children eligible for receiving free school meals were significantly less likely to reach a good level of development than children not eligible for free school meals, with an attainment gap of 17 percentage points between the 2 groups. ↩, Marmot Review Team. They reflect the priority areas for action identified in the Marmot Review. [18], There also exist differentials in health with respect to men. "The poor health of the poor, the social gradient in health within countries, and the marked health inequities between countries are caused by the unequal distribution of power, income, goods, and services, globally and nationally. Setting the standards for learning, development and care for children from birth to five. [5], Social determinants of health in poverty reveal inequalities in health. In this edition of The Science of Being Human: Profiles in Behavioral Science series, Dr. David R. Williams discusses the Social Factors of Health.

This can be attributed to governmental, environmental, geographical, and cultural factors. The social factors shape who we are as people. More than half of women surveyed reported worsening mental health compared with 40.3 per cent of men. [14] A study of the Emergency Department found that the majority of patients presenting with mental illness were those on Medical (20.4%) and Medicare (31.5%), whereas only 12.4% of privately insured patients presented with mental illness. Joseph Roundtree Foundation: London. As outlined in chapters 3 and 4, these disease groups are major contributors to the total burden of morbidity across England and EU countries. ↩, Public Health Outcomes Framework. [1] According to the WHO, healthcare systems can most improve health equality when institutions are organized to provide universal coverage, where everyone receives the same quality healthcare regardless of ability to pay, as well as a Primary Healthcare system rather than emergency center assistance. [40] History exhibits that when the masses become politically aware of the problems around them, they are more empowered to find their own voice and revolt against systemic inequalities to take control of their lives and improve healthcare accessibility and affordability. Public Health Outcomes Framework. [1], Living in a rural community, whether in the United States, or around the globe, reduces access to medical services, health insurance, and changes health culture. According to Mirowsky and Ross, education determines other factors of livelihood like occupation and income that determines income, which determines health outcomes. 4. Adolescent health has been proven to be influenced by both structural and proximal determinants, but structural determinants play the more significant role. The Commission of Social Determinants of Health, created in 2015 by the World Health Organization, was a pioneer in the push for more focus on "creating better social conditions for health, particularly among the most vulnerable people”. ↩, PHE. "[35] These stressors can cause physiological alterations including increased cortisol, changed blood-pressure, and reduced immunity which increases their risks for poor health. [4] It has been known for decades that epidemic disease is caused by structural forces. [14] Poor women also have significant comorbidity, or existence of two ailments, such as psychiatric disorders with psychoactive substance use. Poor and unequal living conditions result from deeper structural conditions, including "poor social policies and programs, unfair economic arrangements, and bad politics,"[1] that determine the way societies are organized. 2.Health care rationing.

The end of South Africa's apartheid regime has still not dismantled the structures of inequality and oppression, which has led the persistent social inequality to perpetuate the spread of HIV, diminishing population health. [4], Structural violence is often embedded in longstanding social structures, ubiquitous throughout the globe, that are regularized by persistent institutions and regular experience with them. [28] Also, the political economy, encompassing production organization, physical infrastructure, and political institutions [9] play a large role in determining health inequalities.

While it is positive to note an increase, this still means that less than 1 in 5 people regularly use outdoor space for health or exercise. The broad social and economic circumstances that together influence health throughout the life course are known as the ‘social determinants of health’. Employment is one of the most important determinants of physical and mental health; the long-term unemployed have a lower life expectancy and worse health than those in work[footnote 10]. The indicators are all drawn from the Public Health Outcomes Framework and are divided into 3 groups: More information can be found in the report ‘Public Health Outcomes Framework: Health Equity Report.
