Health Inequalities
Levers
The “social determinants” of health (such as poverty) are translated into health inequalities in a number of ways including, for example, by creating barriers in access to services. We’ve called these factors “levers” for change.
Experiences of services
We know that the extent to which young people have a positive experience of services will impact on their decision to reengage in future appointments and visits.
Chart L5 shows that young people from more deprived areas are less likely to report an overall positive experiencing of their GP practice. Linked to this, Chart L6 shows that young people from more deprived backgrounds are also less likely to feel like their needs were met in the last GP appointment they attended.
