Health Quality Mark

Aim of the Health Quality Mark To recognise and acknowledge quality health promotion in Youth Organisations.

Context for the Health Quality Mark Questions regarding the Impact and Sustainability of training International good practice regarding quality frameworks in Health Promotion Developed from the World Health Organisation - Health Promotion School concept Identified need for professional development on Health promotion within youth sector. Based on evidence informed Settings based approach to Health Promotion

Rational for Health Quality Mark The Settings based approach to Health Promotion : “ The place or social context in which people engage in daily activities in which environmental organisational and personal factors interact to affect health and wellbeing.” World Health Organisation (1998)

A Health Promoting Environment: People feel valued Self-esteem is fostered Respect, tolerance and fairness are evident High expectations and standards are promoted Support for those in difficulties Effort recognised and rewarded Uniqueness and difference are valued. Conflict is handled constructively Initiative and creativity are encouraged Social, Moral and civic values are promoted.

The Health Quality Mark encourages and facilitates youth organisations to develop and deliver a ‘ whole organisational approach ’ to promoting health. This can happen at four distinct levels as follows: HEALTH PROMOTION Creating Supportive Environments Policy Development Partnerships With Others Personal Skills Health Education

Evaluation of the Health Quality Mark The HQM has positive impacts at the level of individual young people, staff, volunteers and the organisation Process is very important Having a target of an award to work toward is described as motivating The assessment dimension indicates a respect for the process and results in satisfaction Criteria highlight areas that require attention NUI Galway 2007

Evaluation of the Health Quality Mark Impact on Young People: It was seen to instill a sense of pride and achievement It provided greater opportunities to work on health related topics It enhanced their experience of youth participation through greater involvement in all aspects of health promotion in the organisation It increased their self confidence It impacted positively on their overall health status, e.g. through the provision of needs-based programmes on cooking and nutrition, the provision of healthy food and snacks.

Evaluation of the Health Quality Mark Impact on Staff and Volunteers: Providing staff with training opportunities Fostering a greater awareness of youth health issues Improving teamwork and a sense of ownership of the HQM process. Impact on the Youth Organisation: Familiarise staff with the process of information gathering Enhance the image of the organisation within the community Provide tangible evidence of their quality of work in relation to health Improve overall teamwork between staff and management Embed the issue of health within the overall work of the organisation.
