Healthy Ireland Survey - Provision of services to conduct an annual Healthy Ireland Survey over a three year period

Department of Health

Healthy Ireland is the new National Framework for action to improve health and wellbeing of people living in Ireland. Key to the implementation of the Framework will be the availability of robust research and evidence to ensure goals, programmes and policy and programming decisions are based on evidence, best practice approaches, and integrated with service delivery to maximise impact.
In this context, the development of a national Healthy Ireland Survey will generate data that will highlight significant patterns and trends in Irish lifestyles in the context of the Healthy Ireland Framework. The Healthy Ireland Survey will report on key indicators of lifestyle factors, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, diet, sexual health and wellbeing to monitor the key trends and policy impacts in those areas. The aim is to collect a core set of data, on an annual basis for three years, on the health status and other health related variables of a nationally representative sample of the general Irish population aged 15 years and over in private households. This sample should be sufficiently large and structured in such a way as to make comparisons between various sub-groupings of the population possible.
There will be a set of core questions each year but with the flexibility to change some questions as the need arises (without significant changes to the number of questions). This will facilitate the inclusion of module topics to reflect the broad social determinants of health and wellbeing.
