1. Children & Young Persons Health Index Nick Germain, Senior Public Health Analyst, NHS Doncaster

2. Why create a local index? Overall measure of health for children & young people. Broad strategic picture for service design and decision making across the partnership. Limitations to current sources, i.e. Child Wellbeing Index. Flexible ; oContent – choose indicators that are relevant to local priorities, oFrequency – produce updates whenever needed, oWeighting – alter the focus for different projects, oGeography – calculated for bespoke areas not fixed administrative boundaries. oInternal – comparison against Doncaster so measures internal variation.

3. 88 geographies created to reflect the natural communities that people identify with.

4. Aligns with 16 Council neighbourhood areas.

5. Also aligns with most Sure Start areas.

7. Sources & method Mainly health indicators plus social care, economy, education, crime and housing; All relatively available and LA very supportive. Simple process, most time is spent calculating rates. All indicators in same ‘direction’; low = good, high = bad. Divide community by Doncaster for individual scores; ( 1=Doncaster, 1= ‘worse’ than Doncaster) Add indicators up into domains, add domains up into the final score. Apply weighting at indicator and/or domain level.

10. Early access to maternity services As discussed, aim was to increase engagement with services before 12 weeks gestation. Identify indicators relevant to the issue. Calculate the score and split into population quintiles. This identifies 1/5 th of the population most in need of engagement – not necessarily following CWI or IMD. Follows principles of QIPP targeting use of resources.

12. Again, use mapping to aid interpretation

13. Targeted Interventions (NHS Doncaster). Informed the proposed Integrated Family Support Service (DMBC). Family Nurse Partnership (Local Strategic Partnership). Use current scores as a baseline to measure changes in health outcomes and inequalities. All contribute to QIPP agenda directing effective use of resources. Other uses identified

14. Does not yet include a measure of statistical significance. Some small communities have very low figures, they have not suppressed but it does need a caveat. Cannot use indicators with extreme outliers. Use as a inequality measure needs to be validated. Limitations
