“Ageing Well in North East Lincolnshire” Director of Public Health Annual Report 2016

Older People What does old mean? Different for different people; biological and calendar ages Pension age is 65, but rising due to increased life expectancy and changes in culture Our survey found... on average people thought old age began at 69.

How many older people are there? A fifth of NEL population is aged 65+ NEL has an ageing population; greater than national figures Source: ONS

Population projections Older populations are increasing The number of people aged 85+ is predicted to nearly double by 2037 Source: ONS

The implications of an ageing population Increasing age and survival increases the potential for cumulative numbers of long-term conditions (see figure below). Multi-morbidity is associated with age and deprivation, therefore, it is a major public health issue for North East Lincolnshire due to the ageing population and high levels of deprivation across the area. Source: Barnett et al., 2012 Older people are on the whole, are fit and healthy and do bring many benefits to the area, such as volunteer work across a wide range of activities.

Life expectancy Life expectancy in North East Lincolnshire is 80.3 years, with the East Marsh, South and Sidney Sussex wards having the lowest life expectancy. Females life expectancy is 82 years which is slightly greater than males which is 78 years. Source: ONS

Healthy Life Expectancy In NEL the healthy life expectancy in males is 61.4 and for females 63 years, both are significantly lower than England. Source: ONS

Disability Free Life Expectancy Disability free life expectancy for NEL for 2009-2013 is 62.3 for males and for females it is 63.9 years both of which are significantly lower than England. Source: ONS

Issues affecting older life People are now living much longer and the body at 55 is very different to the body at 75. Long term conditions It is predicted that 29.3% of older people who have a long term illness which affects their day to day activities a little (POPPI, 2015) Source: Public Health England, North East Lincolnshire Ageing Well Pack

Issues affecting older life Confusion and Dementia 1486 people in North East Lincolnshire diagnosed with Dementia, with 96.2% being aged 65+ Frailty Affects up to 50% of people aged 80 and over Five main pillars of frailty; falls, immobility, delirium, incontinence and susceptibility to the side effects of medication Functional decline in day to day activities in those with multi morbidity or frailty is considerable and this can occur gradually or suddenly due to a fall or illness. Our survey found... two fifths of older people reported that they had a significant health need. Just under three quarters reported that they take prescription medication at least daily.

Lifestyle behaviours Lifestyle and behaviours can impact upon the health of older people and vice versa. Physical activity 11% of men and 7% women aged 85+ are achieving the recommended levels of physical activity (Health Survey for England, 2012). Smoking In 2014, 11% of over 60s in England are regular smokers (ASH) Alcohol 50 emergency admissions in NEL for alcohol related liver disease in people aged 60 and over. Diet and nutrition Our survey found... nearly half of over 60s have an alcoholic drink once a week or more, with 11.8% drinking almost daily. Our survey found... under half (48.8%) of respondents reported eating three meals a day.

Age Friendly Place – Wider determinants that can affect the health of the elderly Place has a major impact on the health and wellbeing of older people The World Health Organisation (WHO) has launched an age friendly checklist to encourages places to be age friendly. Outdoor spaces and buildings Transport Housing Social participation Respect and social inclusion Civic participation and employment Communication and Information Community and health services

Age Friendly Place - Outdoor spaces and buildings WHO recognises that outdoor spaces and safety of the area can impact upon the quality of life of older people, and can impact on their independence. 94.2% of NEL population is living in an urban environment, despite this there are many open spaces and parks within the area

Age Friendly Place – Transport Despite NEL being predominately urban with centres of Grimsby, Cleethorpes and Immingham, there are areas with rural communities. Despite most having good transport links there are some rural residents unable to access mainstream public transport. Our survey found... Most people find it easy to get out and about to do various activities including shopping, health care and for social activities. Most reported that they regularly drive themselves.

Age Friendly Place – Housing A priority in the local plan is to increase the provision of housing and ensure it is appropriate for older people. A 60 unit Extra Care Housing (ECH) has been developed by NEL Council and CCG with plans for four further ECH within the area in coming years. Our survey found... 96.5% of older people lived in either a house flat or bungalow, of which 91% owned their own home. Poverty 12.5% of people in receipt of benefits are of pensionable age Fuel Poverty The depth of fuel poverty increases in older households rather than the proportion Can affect both physical and mental health particularly within vulnerable groups such as the elderly

Age Friendly Place – Social participation, respect and social isolation The number of older people living alone is set to rise which may impact upon social isolation Good neighbours project

Age Friendly Place - Civic participation Volunteering In NEL there are various training opportunities to equip older people with the ability to volunteer and provide older people led services in the community. k Employment ; Training/ learning Furthering education should not be discouraged because of someone's age and older people may use this as a social opportunity. Our survey found... 44.2% of respondents had given unpaid voluntary help to a group, club or organisation. Our survey found... 31.7% reported that they had been in paid work over the last year. Our survey found... in the past year 12.7% had attended an adult learning class.

Age Friendly Place – Community and Health Services Local health and care services face significant challenge due to the increasing population, particularly in elderly who are often more in need of local services. Healthy lives Healthy Futures A long term programme between North East and North Lincolnshire CCG’s aims to investigate how an improved health care system can be developed across Northern Lincolnshire. Residential Care 3rd lowest rate in the Y&H region for older people (65+) who were admitted to residential or nursing care homes in order to support their needs (553 per 100,000).

Age Friendly Place – Community and Health Services Older People as Carers the 2011 census identified that there were 3820 unpaid carers in North East Lincolnshire aged 65 and over In 2014/15 88.3% of carers received self-directed support (greater than England and Y&H) Our survey found... 17.5% of over 60s reported that they were carers, with a quarter caring for someone for over 50 hours per week.

End of Life Care Refers to people who are “approaching the end of life” within the next 12 months. Deprivation is a major determinant of end of life care, and therefore where, when and how people die. Cost of dying is increasing nationally In 2014 the cost of dying had increased almost 40% since 2007 (Sunlife, 2015). In North east Lincolnshire from an online survey in 2015: 66% had paid in excess of £3000 86% thought the cost of funerals were too high Our survey found... 78% had made a will Half had discussed funeral type they would like 27% had appointed a lasting Power of Attorney

End of Life Care Most people prefer to die at home and without warning, however this often does not happen. In North East Lincolnshire nearly half of deaths in people aged 60 and over are in hospital. Source: Primary Care Mortality Database

Recommendations Consider targeting segments of population susceptible to frailty and offering “wellbeing check” in own home. Investigate availability of local data for older people to inform the needs of the older population with a view to identifying gaps and health inequalities. Encourage the development of an ageing charter by voluntary organisations reflecting the change in culture. Improve communication and sharing of information at provider level to ensure that services work together more to provide a seamless service. Using the WHO age-friendly checklist, conduct an audit to identify how age friendly North East Lincolnshire is as a place. Continue to use and raise awareness of the “services4me” database and the use of the Single Point of Access. Explore ways to obtain local data relating to social isolation and loneliness e.g. older people who have recently been bereaved.

Explore ways to identify older people who are at most risk of being lonely/socially isolated e.g. utilise appropriate “community connectors” (hairdresser, postman). Encourage schools to provide opportunities for young people to learn about ageing and older people e.g. teaching compassion for older people, encouraging young and old to mix together more, teaching children about dementia etc. Services to recognise the change in our culture and to challenge stereotypes of older people e.g. providing services older people want and not based on assumptions. Continue to improve our understanding of the local levels of poverty in later life including funeral poverty. Continue to support older people to have a dignified end of life in the location they choose. Raise awareness of the importance of making preparations for end of life e.g. will writing, Power of Attorney etc.
