Primary Care Children and young people make up a significant proportion of patients seen in primary care. Ensuring that primary care services are able to communicate effectively with children and young people is key to helping then manage their health. Children and young people need to be aware of the services they can access and their right to universal health services. For Children and Young People with long-term chronic conditions communication with primary care is key to good self management.

Secondary Care Greater Manchester has very high rates of child emergency hospital admissions for long-term conditions. Rates of admissions for asthma and epilepsy are significantly higher than the England averages. For asthma and epilepsy emergency admissions rates increase as levels of deprivation increase – but there is no relationship between deprivation and emergency admissions for diabetes. When compared with statistically similar areas – many parts of Greater Manchester have much higher rates of hospital admissions.
