Enhanced Public Health Programme
The Enhanced Public Health Programme (EPHP) is a new way of working which aims to identify and assess need from the perspective of the community and to gain understanding of the inequalities in health and access to services. A series of ‘Community Conference’ workshops were held in each of the following communities
- Askern, Carcroft, Clay Lane, Denaby Main, Edlington, Hexthorpe, Highfields, Hyde Park, Mexborough, Moorends, Rossington, Stainforth, Thorne, Toll Bar, Woodlands.
The aim was to gain an insight into the health and well being issues that exist for the people living in these communities. This information helped to develop an understanding about these different issues. It has enabled services to be planned and commissioned based on the findings from the communities and the professionals working within them. Services were commissioned around the following 6 key themes.
- Reducing the numbers of people who smoke
- Reducing obesity and improving diet and nutrition
- Increasing physical activity
- Encouraging and supporting sensible drinking
- Improving sexual health
- Improving mental health
