Appendix 1
High Level Goal 1 – Health and Well Being
1.1 Online survey feedback Survey feedback was received in both quantitative and qualitative form. Quantitative online survey feedback is provided in graphical form in Appendix 2 (A7.1 for High Level Goal1). This feedback is more “context-providing” than directional in nature and should be used as a reference to support, where necessary, recommended actions. Where the word “notable” is used, this indicates a weighted average score in excess of 2 4 where the chart range is between 0 and 3 (Question 3). 1.1.1 Quantitative survey feedback Online survey responses suggest that the key concerns arising from online survey feedback are as follows: • Responses to the online survey suggested a notable degree of perceived need for improved GP services and primary care (Figure A7.1(a)) • The share of respondents over the age of 60, some 20.2%, is broadly in line with Cork City’s demographic profile (the share of Cork City’s population over the age of 65 is 21.7%) (Figure A7.1(b)). • Significant shares of respondents are from groups that either have significant health challenges or for whom health issues are raised in relevant submissions, namely:
- Some 4.5% are from the Travelling community. - Some 9.5% experience some form of disability. - Some 4.5% are living with an addiction. - Some 16.6% cite serious health issues. - Some 22.9% are from the LGBTI+ community. - Some 4.5% are long-term unemployed.
4 These criteria are somewhat arbitrary but selected to obtain some differentiation in degree between levels of priority as suggested by responses to the survey.
