About this study

The Irish Health Survey is a voluntary survey conducted annually. In Irish law, it is carried out under Section 24 of the Statistics Act, 1993, which allows this Office to invite people to provide information on a voluntary basis.
The Irish Health Survey was designed in line with the fourth wave of the European Health Interview Survey (EHIS). The survey fulfils the need for public health policies to obtain reliable data on health status, health care usage and health determinants. It allows for health comparisons to be made across Europe. As part of the survey, information is collected from participants about general self-perceived health, self-reported longstanding illnesses and longstanding health problems, and self-reported long-standing limitations in activities people usually do because of health problems.


To request this dataset go to the (opens in a new window)Irish Health Survey (IHS), 2024, SN: 0082-03 page and follow the ISSDA request process as outlined in the terms tab.
