Dr. Nanthakumaran highlighted that females in Barnet spend on average 65.3 years in good health out of 83.9 years, while males spend 63.3 out of 79.3 years.
Health issues like obesity, inactivity, smoking, and alcohol consumption significantly impact the population, with obesity rates varying among ethnic groups and higher smoking rates in areas of deprivation.
The study revealed that older men in Barnet had higher rates of hospital admissions for alcohol-related conditions compared to women, and housing conditions, particularly in social or private rented housing, were linked to poorer health outcomes.
Employment patterns differed based on income levels, with higher-income individuals more likely to retire by choice, while lower-income individuals were more likely to leave the workforce due to ill-health.
