Dr Paula Devine @QUBSSESW and Dr @Erin_Early_@ASPS_UU delivered a presentation at the event 'The Invisible Man: Men’s Health - Look at the State of it' held in Stormont this week.
The presentation explored the need for a men's health policy in NI.
Dr. Paula Devine:
"Northern Ireland needs a men's health policy. We've been saying this for over 5 years"
Discussed:
- Life Expectancy
- Deprivation Gaps
- Traveler Men
- Age Groups
- Causes of Death
- Cancers
- Suicide
We'd ask: Who's listening?...
