P1: Explain the strategies used to develop public health policy in order for itto meet its aims
Summary of the beveridge report
1. William Beveridge, a man, published the Beveridge report in 1942. The level of
poverty in the UK at the time required government intervention. As a result, William
Beveridge identified "the five giants/evils" in five issues. The majority of families
were forced to live in slums as a result of home prices rising faster than household
incomes. The second problem was that as a result of less educated people and a lack
of jobs following the war, unemployment rates were rising. Another problem was
that illnesses were becoming more widespread and spreading quickly, but hospitals
were doing very little to help because they were all private and paid charges that
many people could not pay.The issue resulted from the fact that most teenagers in
the 1900s left school early (at the age of 14) leaving them with little money for
higher study. The final problem that William Beveridge discovered was that each
household's income was low because of extreme poverty, which resulted in many
families being unable to purchase basic essentials for everyday life. William
Beveridge stated that the government must overcome these '5 evils' with a welfare
state” that would provide help and support.He encouraged the government to give
citizens a fair wage, appropriate housing, adequate health care, and suitable
employment opportunities. The government gathered after William Beveridge voiced
his worries and listened to his suggestions. As a result of the Labour Party's election
victory in 1945, the welfare state was created.
Summary of the black report report
2. The report of the working group on the Black Report was published by the UK
government of health and social security in August 1980. (inequalities in health). The
research included extensive evidence of how unequally death and disease develop
among British residents and showed that these conflicts had grown rather than
decreased since the National Health Service was established in 1948. According to
the analysis, a number of other social inequalities that have an effect on health, such
as income, education, housing, food, employment, and working conditions, are more
likely to be to blame for these issues than the NHS's problems.As a result, the team
came up with various social policy solutions to overcome health inequality. However,
the Secretary of State for Social Services ignored this information, and only a few
copies of this report were printed, so few people read it.
Summary of the acheson report
3. The report by Acheson was published in 1998. This report's objectives were to
identify more areas for future development to reduce barriers and to provide data to
help in the development of the government's public health plan. On a number of
topics relating to health, the environment, and social aspects, this report included
specific suggestions.One of the proposals was the establishment of health impact
analyses for any actions that were likely to have a direct or indirect impact on health
, and health inequalities.
4. Furthermore, the ideas included adjusting public health directors to each health
authority and giving the NHS executive and regional government a responsibility to
cooperate in order to ensure local partnerships between local government and
health. The suggestions were not costed, and the inquiry team lacked an economist.
Many of them called for a significant redistribution of wealth, and Acheson intended
them to be carried out as a whole.
Identifying the needs of the population
The government department responsible for assessing the country's healthcare needs in
England is the department of health. Programs to lower risk and screen for early illness
symptoms have also been created. The department of health examines the current state of
the nation's health and highlights problems before working with other organisations to
create policies and legislation.Diseases were growing more widespread and spreading
quickly, but hospitals provided very little assistance because they were all private and
charged taxes that many people could not pay, according to the Beveridge report. In this
case, the government's response to identifying this health problem would be to lower the
cost of healthcare, such as hospitals, or institute a no-fee policy, to enable people to access
treatment and stop the spread of diseases. Many people would benefit from this, and the
country's death rates would decrease.For many people, this would result in a better
outcome, and it would also decrease the nation's death rates. People must have access to
quality healthcare, thanks to the welfare state established by the Beveridge report. This will
guarantee public healthcare access and stop the spread of disease.Health experts noted that
people's health had improved as a result of food rationing during the war and 10 years after
that people's health had progressed. In order to support illness and conditions brought on
by war or poverty local authorities had made a children and mental health departments and
this was named as a ‘social citizenship’ agenda and was the first time that the government
served as the provider for the well being of all the people. The government's role of
understanding social change was essential in controlling the treatment and disease.
Planning and evaluating
The department of health examines every health problem in the country from many
perspectives. By working with several agencies, they are able to rule out the most serious
health problems and assist individuals in reducing these problems by developing a strategy.
The seven leading causes of death, according to the NHS Health Check Implementation
Review and Action Plan 2013, are obesity, alcohol use, high blood pressure, cholesterol,
smoking, a poor diet, and a lack of physical activity. Since these factors are not related to a
healthy and balanced diet, the government would develop policies to promote people and
their wellness.
