State of Health in Tennessee

According to America’s Health Rankings 2016 report, Tennessee ranks 44th out of 50 states when it comes to overall health. Although the state has a low prevalence of excessive drinking, a high percentage of high school graduation, and a small disparity in health status by educational attainment, residents also struggle with challenges including a high prevalence of smoking, high violent crime rate, and a prevalence of frequent physical distress.

In the past three years, drug deaths increased 17% from 15.7 to 18.3 deaths per 100,000 population. HPV immunization among females aged 13 to 17 years has increased but is still under 40%, and Tdap immunization among adolescents aged 13 to 17 years has decreased over the past year.

Over one third of the population is obese, and nearly a third don't get enough physical activity. Combined with the high smoking rate and frequency of physical distress, this raises risks for cardiac events.
