“…Life course in this context is taken to mean the social aspect of the lifespan which involves biological, social, and psychological processes leading to planned or unplanned life transitions and/or events. Importantly, a life course approach recognizes that ageing experiences are influenced by factors relating to cohort effects (Hubley & Copeman, 2008;Phillipson & Baars, 2007). Some issues related to this are unique for later life; others are of greater relevance in later life.…”

“…Health promotion can take a variety of forms including provision of advice and education for improving health and avoiding ill health, the implementation of service improvements and policy agenda-setting. Hubley and Copeman 20 have put forward a framework for describing the range of activities that may be encompassed within health promotion programmes. This is comprised of three main types of activity: (1) health education, which involves communication directed at individuals, families and communities to influence; (2) service improvement, which involves quality and quantity of service; and (3) advocacy, which involves agenda-setting for healthy public policy.…”

HTAThe clinical effectiveness and costeffectiveness of home-based, nurse-led health promotion for older people: a systematic review NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeThe Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HT...

“…While there is widespread discussion and debate about the role of schools in society (Hubley et al, 2013), the data from this evaluation suggests that one of the critical elements for successful implementation of the toothbrushing in schools programme is when stakeholders (i.e. teachers, head teachers and parents) are in agreement that the school's mission concerns more than educational attainment as its primary remit.…”

“…Despite no clear theoretical underpinning, multi-agency and intersectoral interventions to tackle oral health inequalities have been espoused with many commentators advocating that schools are a key setting for tackling inequalities in oral health (Kwan et al, 2005). Schools offer the opportunity to reach a large proportion of the global population and can be instrumental in shaping children's health related beliefs, attitudes, values and behaviours (Hubley et al, 2013). Moreover given that evidence suggests that good health in childhood can subsequently track into adulthood, schools can potentially play a crucial role in establishing the foundations for healthy patterns of behaviour (Tones and Tilford, 2001, Licence, 2004, Aunger, 2007, Green and Tones, 2010.…”

An evaluation of a toothbrushing programme in schools

et al. 2014

Purpose: This paper assesses the effectiveness of a toothbrushing intervention delivered in primary schools in Yorkshire and the Humber, a Northern district of England. The toothbrushing intervention was designed with the intention of improving the oral health of young children. The paper reports the effectiveness of the intervention and explores process issues related to its co-ordination and delivery. Design/methodology/approach: The evaluation had three data gathering approaches. These were: in-depth case studies of three selected schools participating in the toothbrushing programme; interviews with oral health promoters responsible for the programme in the district; and a small scale questionnaire based survey which was sent to the 18 schools participating in the intervention. Findings: The intervention was accepted by children and they enjoyed participating in the toothbrushing scheme. Children had often become more knowledgeable about toothbrushing and the consequences of not regularly cleaning their teeth. The scheme was contingent on key staff in the school and the programme was more successful where school's embraced, rather than rejected the notion of improving children's health alongside educational attainment. Whether the intervention made differences to brushing in the home requires further investigation, but there is a possibility that children can act as positive 'change agents' with siblings and other family members. Practical implications: This paper suggests that schools can be an effective setting for implementing toothbrushing interventions. Originality/value: Toothbrushing in schools programmes are a relatively new initiative that have not been fully explored, especially using qualitative approaches or focussing on the views of children. This paper makes a particular contribution to understanding the process and delivery of toothbrushing interventions delivered in primary schools. The implications for programmes outside of the UK context are discussed.
