Promoting Public healthUnit 8
In this report, I am looking at the aims of public health policy and how to minimise factors that affect
the health of the population. I will be focusing on strategies that are used to develop better public
health policies and different factors which would also affect public health in a demographic area.
Public health policy ‘refers to decisions, plans, and actions that are undertaken to achieve specific
health care goals within a society.’ This means that the public health policy is all the decisions and
actions that are talked about and taken to be able to achieve the aims of specific health goals. An
‘explicit’ health policy is able to achieve more than one specific health goal. It can define visions of
the future which would help establish aims. The main aim of the public health policy is to ‘plan
national provision of health care and promote the health of the population’. This means that the
government are trying to increase the health of the population and to encourage more people to
stay as healthy as possible. Public health policy has also been put in place to help identify and
monitor the needed of the individuals and reduce inequalities.

P1- There are many strategies that are used to develop public health policies. For example:
screenings, recycling and pollution.
Screening programmes is a type of strategy that is used to develop public health policy. Screening
programmes are a way of identifying people who are at high risk of certain conditions and who may
have the certain conditions. Most individuals will have a letter sent to them asking if they want to
have screenings to find out if they have any serious diseases. Screenings are different from ‘health
promotions’ as it is not a way from improve lifestyle, it is a way of finding out if an individual has any
life-threatening illnesses/diseases. The main aim of screenings is to help reduce the amount of
people becoming ill and to be able to catch any illnesses/ diseases, some may have, quickly so that
more treatment can be done. There are many types of screenings such as: breast screenings, cervical
screenings, bowel cancer screenings and diabetic eye screenings. Each screening is different and can
help diagnose or check up on different illnesses/diseases. Depending on the circumstances, most
screenings are given to people over the age of 24, however, GPs (General Practitioner) may get
someone who is younger to have a screening if they think that the person may have a certain
condition. Also, some new born babies may have a screening for a certain disease if it is common in
the family or if the parents have it.
This strategy helps develop public health policy by encouraging the public to get checked and be
safe. Having the screening would allow individuals to find out if there is anything wrong. Before
screening programmes were available to the public, people would end up dying from unknown
causes. Doctors and scientist couldn’t figure out why so many people were dying unexplainably.
After investigations, they found out people were dying from illnesses and diseases that weren't
acknowledged or found on the person. This is where screenings then came in to account. These
helped save lots of people. A policy that helps support screening programmes is ‘Making Life Better
Strategic Framework 2013-2023’.

Another strategy that that helps develop public health policy is recycling and being able to manage
waste. Recycling is ‘the process of collecting and changing old paper, glass, plastic, etc. so that it can
be used again.’ This means that recycling is gathering together old materials so that they are able to
