Service Snapshots

Service Snapshots provide a summary of demand, risk factors, provision and outcomes for services in a particular area. Some of these reports combine data from ChiMat and the Children’s Services Mapping programme.

Service Snapshot reports are available for the following themes:

• CAMHS (child and adolescent mental health services) for CAMHS partnerships
• Disability for local authorities
• Infant mortality for primary care trusts
• Maternity for primary care trusts
• Obesity for local authorities
• Obesity for primary care trusts
• Teenage pregnancy for local authorities
• Vaccination and Immunisation for primary care trusts ^new

Another is in development for Vaccinations and immunisations.

The Service Snapshot – Obesity has been developed in partnership with the National Obesity Observatory (NOO) and the National Support Team.

We have also produced a report showing that children who have a limiting illness are more likely to be obese or overweight, particularly if they also have a learning disability. Our analysis showed that 40% of children aged under 8 years old with a limiting illness and learning disability are obese or overweight compared to 22.4% of children who have neither condition.
