Abstract
Description
The 2018 edition of Health in Ireland: Key Trends provides summary statistics on health and health care over the past ten years. It highlights selected trends and topics and includes data from newly available sources. There are also several tables and graphs comparing Ireland with other countries in the EU or the OECD, to provide context for national performance and assess progress. The booklet is divided into seven chapters covering topics from population growth, life expectancy and health status to health service efficiency, staffing and costs. Rapid ageing of the population in conjunction with lifestyle-related health threats present major challenges now and for the future in sustaining and improving health and health services in Ireland.
