  12. BRFSS established in 1984 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). • Is a state-based system of health surveys (BRFS) to collect information about adult health risk behaviors, preventive health practices, and health care access. • For many states, the BRFSS is the only available source of timely, accurate data on health-related behaviors. • Survey is conducted annually by all 50 states using a core set of questions. • Many communities (i.e. counties, large cities, regions, etc.) have an interest in knowing how local health-related behaviors compare to state and national trends → → local BRFS.

  13. Clinton County Behavioral Risk Factor Survey Telephone survey of Clinton County adults conducted by Public Sector Consultants during 2006. • 400 Clinton County adults selected to participate using a randomized list of residential phone numbers. • Cooperation rate of 62% of households contacted. • Survey data sent to MMDHD in 2007 for analysis and reporting. • Results have a margin of error of +/- 5%.

  14. Behavioral Risk Factor Survey Percentage of adults reporting their general health status as “fair” or “poor”. Percentage of adults reporting at least 14 days of poor mental health during past 30 days. Percentage of adults reporting at least 14 days of poor physical health during past 30 days.

  20. BRFS Implications • Clinton County perceived health status relatively better compared to Michigan (exception – mental health). • Local prevalence of smoking, overweight status, sedentary lifestyle, inadequate fruit/veg’s., heavy drinking greater than MI overall rates, although not statistically significantly worse. • Local prevalence of HBP, HBC, Diabetes, Asthma less than MI overall rates, although not statistically significantly better. • Access to care (medical and dental) and lack of insurance an issue for many residents. • Trails and pathways considered a safe and healthy community resource.
