1. Aging & Public Health: The Case for Working Together Wisconsin Institute for Healthy Aging Learning Forum Karen Timberlake, Director UW Population Health Institute June 13, 2016

3. Overview What’s the case for collaboration between Public Health and Aging? What makes collaboration difficult? What are some current trends and opportunities? Putting a stake in the ground – vision and leadership

4. What Is “Health?” Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well- being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. -World Health Organization, 1948

5. What is “Population Health”? We propose that the definition [of population health] be “the health outcomes of a group of individuals, including the distribution of such outcomes within the group,” and we argue that the field of population health includes health outcomes, patterns of health determinants, and policies and interventions that link these two. What Is Population Health? American Journal of Public Health March 2003: Vol. 93, No. 3, pp. 380-383. doi: 10.2105/AJPH.93.3.380

33. So Now What? What’s the problem you’re trying to solve? Where are you today? Where do you want to be? What’s keeping you from getting there? Why? Why? Etc. What could you do to address the root causes of barriers to progress? Who else needs to be involved in answering the above questions? Who will convene the process that addresses them? How can Public Health and Aging collaborate and take these steps together, with partners?
