This publication contains the official statistics about uses of the Mental Health Act(1) ('the Act') in England during 2018-19. Under the Act, people with a mental disorder may be formally detained in hospital (or 'sectioned') in the interests of their own health or safety, or for the protection of other people. They can also be treated in the community but subject to recall to hospital for assessment and/or treatment under a Community Treatment Order (CTO). In 2016-17, the way we source and produce these statistics changed. Previously these statistics were produced from the KP90 aggregate data collection. They are now primarily produced from the Mental Health Services Data Set (MHSDS). The MHSDS provides a much richer data source for these statistics, allowing for new insights into uses of the Act. However, some providers that make use of the Act are not yet submitting data to the MHSDS, or submitting incomplete data. Improvements in data quality have been made over the past year. NHS Digital is working with partners to ensure that all providers are submitting complete data and this publication includes guidance on interpreting these statistics.

Publication changes: Please read the section on 'Notes on changes to publications' within the PDF report as this highlights changes to data currently published and potentially the frequency of future reports. In this quarter’s publication an additional table showing the extra detail available from the Tertiary Area of Work field in ESR is included for Trusts and CCGs, together with a document looking at the latest way of defining the Mental Health workforce and a .csv file to allow users to explore a time series of that workforce. This report shows monthly numbers of NHS Hospital and Community Health Service (HCHS) staff groups working in Trusts and CCGs in England (excluding primary care staff). Data is available as headcount and full-time equivalents. This data is an accurate summary of the validated data extracted from the NHS's HR and Payroll system. In addition to the regular monthly reports there are a series of quarterly reports (first published on 26 July 2016 looking at the data for March 2016) which include statistics on staff in Trusts and CCGs and information for NHS Support Organisations and Central Bodies. The quarterly analysis will be published each; September (showing June statistics) December (showing September statistics) March (showing December statistics) June (showing March statistics). Due to their size CSV data are only available for each respective month however data from September 2009 to March 2016 are all available within the March 2016 web page. This is accessible from the 'previous versions of the publication' link within the 'Related Links' section below. Additional healthcare workforce data relating to GPs and Independent Sector workforce are also available; links to this data are available below.

This dataset provides information on out of area placements in mental health services in England from both NHS and independent providers. The dataset contains data related to the number placements, as well as breakdowns by region and provider. With this data you can explore the trends for out of area placements in your region and compare those trends with national level figures.
This guide will show you how to get started exploring this dataset.
Step 1: Understand The Data Set Structure
The first step for getting started is to get a good understanding of the structure of the dataset itself in order to better understand what types of questions we can ask our data with. This dataset has several columns which have been listed below:
Publication Type: This column provides information on what type of report is being referenced such as statistical bulletin or key facts & figures etc
Publication Period: This column represents a period within a year moment which periods are expressed by either month, quarter or financial year etc..
Publication Date: This column informs us when the publication was made available online expressed as a date format e.g 2018-04-02)
Question: Here we will find measurements such as people waiting an average or median length times such that they answer certain question asked by officials.
Breakdown1,BreakDown1Code, ‘Breakdown1Description’ : These columns provide extra context into specific highlights from results in further detail eg Breakdowns include areas like Age Group ,Nationality (for immigration statistics) gender for population statistics etc... where code values may appear something like “OAP_AGE_All” and descriptions appear like “Waiting Times All Ages respectively .
BreakDown2,BreakDown2Code, 'Breakdown2Description':These are data attributes similar top BreakDown 1 but at even more granular level eg Doctor Specialty/Department, Treatment Type, Indicators (for regional/local analysis), Countries ..etc . It's important not note here that breakdown 2 has deeper break down against Breakdown 1 depending further detail asked while investigating deeper under specified parameters /results .Eg You might want drill down ages into age groups 0–4, 5–14 ,15-29....etc excluding 65+ corresponding breakdown codes might be OAP_AGE_0
- Creating insight into regional differences in mental health out of area placements in order to identify if more funding is needed and implement programs to address the predisposing risk factors for those regions with higher out of area placement rates.
- Comparing the amount of expenditure allocated on out of area placements between different areas and provinces, so that extra funding may be given to areas which need it more.
- Examining the correlation between changes in funding or policy and its effects on out of area placements at both a national and local level, in order to assess whether certain policies are successful or not at curbing them such as introducing preventative measures before placement outside an individual's region is necessary

TwitterThis indicator is a measure of the extent to which adults with a serious mental illness (SMI) die younger than adults without a serious mental illness (nSMI). To measure premature mortality in adults diagnosed with serious mental illness (SMI). This indicator was put on hold in November 2016. The introduction of the new mental health services data set (MHSDS) meant that a new indicator methodology needed to be developed. The indicator was republished with new data in December 2020. The republished data uses a different methodology to the data published in 2016 and prior to this. As such, comparisons should not be made between the two. Legacy unique identifier: P01740

TwitterSUMMARYThis analysis, designed and executed by Ribble Rivers Trust, identifies areas across England with the greatest levels of physical and mental illnesses that are linked with obesity and inactivity. Please read the below information to gain a full understanding of what the data shows and how it should be interpreted.ANALYSIS METHODOLOGYThe analysis was carried out using Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) data, derived from NHS Digital, relating to:- Asthma (in persons of all ages)- Cancer (in persons of all ages)- Chronic kidney disease (in adults aged 18+)- Coronary heart disease (in persons of all ages)- Depression (in adults aged 18+)- Diabetes mellitus (in persons aged 17+)- Hypertension (in persons of all ages)- Stroke and transient ischaemic attack (in persons of all ages)This information was recorded at the GP practice level. However, GP catchment areas are not mutually exclusive: they overlap, with some areas covered by 30+ GP practices. Therefore, to increase the clarity and usability of the data, the GP-level statistics were converted into statistics based on Middle Layer Super Output Area (MSOA) census boundaries.For each of the above illnesses, the percentage of each MSOA’s population with that illness was estimated. This was achieved by calculating a weighted average based on:- The percentage of the MSOA area that was covered by each GP practice’s catchment area- Of the GPs that covered part of that MSOA: the percentage of patients registered with each GP that have that illness The estimated percentage of each MSOA’s population with each illness was then combined with Office for National Statistics Mid-Year Population Estimates (2019) data for MSOAs, to estimate the number of people in each MSOA with each illness, within the relevant age range.For each illness, each MSOA was assigned a relative score between 1 and 0 (1 = worst, 0 = best) based on:A) the PERCENTAGE of the population within that MSOA who are estimated to have that illnessB) the NUMBER of people within that MSOA who are estimated to have that illnessAn average of scores A & B was taken, and converted to a relative score between 1 and 0 (1= worst, 0 = best). The closer to 1 the score, the greater both the number and percentage of the population in the MSOA predicted to have that illness, compared to other MSOAs. In other words, those are areas where a large number of people are predicted to suffer from an illness, and where those people make up a large percentage of the population, indicating there is a real issue with that illness within the population and the investment of resources to address that issue could have the greatest benefits.The scores for each of the 8 illnesses were added together then converted to a relative score between 1 – 0 (1 = worst, 0 = best), to give an overall score for each MSOA: a score close to 1 would indicate that an area has high predicted levels of all obesity/inactivity-related illnesses, and these are areas where the local population could benefit the most from interventions to address those illnesses. A score close to 0 would indicate very low predicted levels of obesity/inactivity-related illnesses and therefore interventions might not be required.LIMITATIONS1. GPs do not have catchments that are mutually exclusive from each other: they overlap, with some geographic areas being covered by 30+ practices. This dataset should be viewed in combination with the ‘Health and wellbeing statistics (GP-level, England): Missing data and potential outliers’ dataset to identify where there are areas that are covered by multiple GP practices but at least one of those GP practices did not provide data. Results of the analysis in these areas should be interpreted with caution, particularly if the levels of obesity/inactivity-related illnesses appear to be significantly lower than the immediate surrounding areas.2. GP data for the financial year 1st April 2018 – 31st March 2019 was used in preference to data for the financial year 1st April 2019 – 31st March 2020, as the onset of the COVID19 pandemic during the latter year could have affected the reporting of medical statistics by GPs. However, for 53 GPs (out of 7670) that did not submit data in 2018/19, data from 2019/20 was used instead. Note also that some GPs (997 out of 7670) did not submit data in either year. This dataset should be viewed in conjunction with the ‘Health and wellbeing statistics (GP-level, England): Missing data and potential outliers’ dataset, to determine areas where data from 2019/20 was used, where one or more GPs did not submit data in either year, or where there were large discrepancies between the 2018/19 and 2019/20 data (differences in statistics that were > mean +/- 1 St.Dev.), which suggests erroneous data in one of those years (it was not feasible for this study to investigate this further), and thus where data should be interpreted with caution. Note also that there are some rural areas (with little or no population) that do not officially fall into any GP catchment area (although this will not affect the results of this analysis if there are no people living in those areas).3. Although all of the obesity/inactivity-related illnesses listed can be caused or exacerbated by inactivity and obesity, it was not possible to distinguish from the data the cause of the illnesses in patients: obesity and inactivity are highly unlikely to be the cause of all cases of each illness. By combining the data with data relating to levels of obesity and inactivity in adults and children (see the ‘Levels of obesity, inactivity and associated illnesses: Summary (England)’ dataset), we can identify where obesity/inactivity could be a contributing factor, and where interventions to reduce obesity and increase activity could be most beneficial for the health of the local population.4. It was not feasible to incorporate ultra-fine-scale geographic distribution of populations that are registered with each GP practice or who live within each MSOA. Populations might be concentrated in certain areas of a GP practice’s catchment area or MSOA and relatively sparse in other areas. Therefore, the dataset should be used to identify general areas where there are high levels of obesity/inactivity-related illnesses, rather than interpreting the boundaries between areas as ‘hard’ boundaries that mark definite divisions between areas with differing levels of these illnesses.
