EHEMU Country Reports - Health Expectancy in Ireland
This report is produced by the European Health Expectancy Monitoring Unit (EHEMU) as part of a country series. It presents health expectancies based on activity limitation (HLY) for Ireland and also translates health expectancies based on the two additional dimensions of health (chronic morbidity and self-perceived health) for Ireland, based on SILC 2005.
It also displays a global analysis of health expectancies of European countries, based on the SILC 2005.
The joint analysis of health and life expectancies adds a quality dimension to the quantity of life lived by
the European populations and can provide evidence of inequalities between MS in terms of health gaps and
highlight potential targets for public health strategies both nationally and at a pan-European level.
