Our first keynote at #RANZCP2021 today will be from Carole Warshaw, director of the US National Center on Domestic Violence, Trauma & Mental Health
Warshaw talking emergence of trauma theory and how powerful it was for survivors - DV not a psychiatric condition but has many MH and substance use related effects. Reframing #RANZCP2021
Coercive control at the heart of DV, physical violence may be a threat to enforce but not always most prominent aspect, says Warshaw. Like being in a hostage situation, aided and abetted by systems - legal, migration and medical #RANZCP2021

Social Determinants As Public Goods.

@LenMNichols & @LaurenTaylorMPH demonstrate that the underprovision of interventions on #SDoH can be addressed through a novel but practical community financing mechanism.

“While the degree to which human beings pursue that which they think is good for them has not and will probably never change, what they believe is good for them can change and from time to time has, radically.”

Given the #NHS70 'birthday present', thought I'd share my reflections on recent changes to funding for health, public health, & social care in England. This is based on a talk I just gave to @DartmouthInst in US.

Both in the US and England, the balance of money and political power lies firmly with the (acute) provider sector at the expense of community orgs, public health, social services, and (perhaps to a slightly lesser extent) mental health and primary care. 2/
Yet, very little of what determines both individual and population health is due to the provider sector, instead, social determinants and unhealthy behaviours are much more important. #SDOH 3/

The effects of public health policies on health inequalities: a review of reviews. Thomson et al, 2017.

“...fiscal and regulation policies were more beneficial for reducing or preventing health inequalities than educational campaigns.”

#SDoH #PEoH #HiAP thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/…
“...how broad policy initiatives for tackling inequalities in health that start off with social determinants (upstream) approach drift downstream to largely individual lifestyle factors, as well as the general trend of investing a the individual level.”
“The consequence of this is a widespread public sector culture in which well-meaning policymakers, practitioners, researchers and members of the public collude in sustaining a ‘cargo cult’ of health behaviorism.” #SDoH #HiAP #PEoH

We are dying younger, in part, because of deliberate policy choices made over decades:
• Rejecting universal health care.
• Cutting taxes for the rich.
• Shunning income support.
• Abandoning universal child care.

Those choices increasingly set us apart in the world. #SDoH
“...any man’s death diminishes me,
because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.”
