ScotPHO Scottish Public Health Observatory Scottish health and wellbeing profiles 2010

The Scottish Public Health Observatory (ScotPHO) health and wellbeing profiles provide an in-depth analysis of health indicators across Lothian, highlighting life expectancy trends, substance use, and child health metrics. This 2010 report, with contributions from NHS Lothian, emphasizes the importance of understanding both reassuring trends, such as increased life expectancy, and emerging challenges like alcohol misuse. It serves as a valuable resource for local health data and supports efforts towards improved public health strategies, particularly among children and young people.
