Mental Health Services Monthly Statistics

This publication provides the most timely picture available of people using NHS funded secondary mental health, learning disabilities and autism services in England. These are experimental statistics which are undergoing development and evaluation. This information will be of use to people needing access to information quickly for operational decision making and other purposes. More detailed information on the quality and completeness of these statistics is made available later in our Mental Health Bulletin: Annual Report publication series.

• COVID-19 and the production of statistics

Due to the coronavirus illness (COVID-19) disruption, it would seem that this is now starting to affect the quality and coverage of some of our statistics, such as an increase in non-submissions for some datasets. We are also starting to see some different patterns in the submitted data. For example, fewer patients are being referred to hospital and more appointments being carried out via phone/telemedicine/email. Therefore, data should be interpreted with care over the COVID-19 period.

Inspiration

This dataset is to solve the challenge- UNCOVER COVID-19 Challenge, United Network for COVID Data Exploration and Research. This data is scraped in hopes of solving the task - Mental health impact and support services.

Task Details Can we predict changes in demand for mental health services and how can we ensure access? (by region, social/economic/demographic factors, etc). Are there signs of shifts in mental health challenges across demographies, whether improvements or declines, as a result of COVID-19 and the various measures implement to contain the pandemic?

This collection includes 27 qualitative surveys completed by probation staff in England about their perceptions of the impact of the response to Covid-19 on their health-related practice with people under supervision. It also includes transcripts from 11 interviews with people that were under probation supervision during the pandemic about the impact of the response to the pandemic on their health, access to healthcare, and their experience of working with probation or health services to improve their health during the pandemic. Notes from two brief follow-up conversations with probation staff which aimed to add detail to the survey findings are also included.

Individuals supervised by probation are more likely to have certain health problems than the general population, often having multiple physical and mental health problems. Poor health can negatively impact on criminal justice outcomes like reoffending. In partnership with healthcare organisations, probation work to identify health needs and improve the health of people under supervision. Probation replaced office appointments with email, Skype and doorstep visits in response to the pandemic, and models of partnership working between health and justice agencies have adapted, changing how healthcare is accessed. The nature and impact of these changes for those under supervision isn't fully understood. Concerns have been raised that existing difficulties that this vulnerable group encounter with accessing healthcare may be made worse. However, the pandemic may also have led to helpful innovations in how healthcare is provided that need to be captured and spread. Following discussions with several senior probation staff, NHS England and individuals with lived experience of the criminal justice system, we have created a proposal to address this knowledge gap and thereby inform future policy and practice. We will use staff survey data and correspondence, and service user interviews to improve understanding of the nature and impact of Covid-19 responses on a) health-related probation practice, b) the lived experience of seeking health support whilst under probation supervision, and c) partnership working and pathways into care. Revolving Doors are key to capturing service user views. Through joint working with stakeholders findings will directly inform how services are provided in the future.

This publication reports on Outpatient activity in England for the financial year 2023-24. This report includes but is not limited to analysis of hospital outpatient appointments by patient demographics, diagnoses, attendance type, operations, specialty and provider level analysis. It describes NHS outpatient appointments in England, rather than the number of patients. The purpose of this publication is to inform and support strategic and policy-led processes for the benefit of patient care and may also be of interest to researchers, journalists and members of the public interested in NHS hospital activity in England. The data source for this publication is Hospital Episode Statistics (HES), which come from the HES data warehouse containing details of all admissions and outpatient appointments at National Health Service (NHS) hospitals in England. It includes private patients treated in NHS hospitals, patients who were resident outside of England and care delivered by treatment centres (including those in the independent sector) funded by the NHS.

This dataset contains information about hospitals in England. National Health Service (NHS) Choices considers hospitals as locations that provide predominantly inpatient services. It includes information about organization and post codes, telephone number and email address for several hospital organizations in England.

Genome-wide association study summary statistics of email contact and Mental Health Questionnaire participation in UK Biobank. Data in support of the manuscript: 'Factors associated with sharing email information and mental health survey participation in large population cohorts'. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND People who opt to participate in scientific studies tend to be healthier, wealthier, and more educated than the broader population. While selection bias does not always pose a problem for analysing the relationships between exposures and diseases or other outcomes, it can lead to biased effect size estimates. Biased estimates may weaken the utility of genetic findings because the goal is often to make inferences in a new sample (such as in polygenic risk score analysis). METHODS We used data from UK Biobank, Generation Scotland, and Partners Biobank and conducted phenotypic and genome-wide association analyses on two phenotypes that reflected mental health data availability: (1) whether participants were contactable by email for follow-up and (2) whether participants responded to follow-up surveys of mental health. RESULTS In UK Biobank, we identified nine genetic loci associated (P < 5 x 10-8) with email contact and 25 loci associated with mental health survey completion. Both phenotypes were positively genetically correlated with higher educational attainment and better health and negatively genetically correlated with psychological distress and schizophrenia. One SNP association replicated along with the overall direction of effect of all association results. CONCLUSIONS Recontact availability and follow-up participation can act as further genetic filters for data on mental health phenotypes.

BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented global public health crisis that continues to exert immense pressure on healthcare and related professional staff and services. The impact on staff wellbeing is likely to be influenced by a combination of modifiable and non-modifiable factors.ObjectivesThe aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the self-reported wellbeing, resilience, and job satisfaction of National Health Service (NHS) and university staff working in the field of healthcare and medical research.MethodsWe conducted a cross sectional survey of NHS and UK university staff throughout the COVID-19 pandemic between May-November 2020. The anonymous and voluntary survey was disseminated through social media platforms, and via e-mail to members of professional and medical bodies. The data was analyzed using descriptive and regression (R) statistics.ResultsThe enjoyment of work and satisfaction outside of work was significantly negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic for all of staff groups independent of other variables. Furthermore, married women reporting significantly lower wellbeing than married men (P = 0.028). Additionally, the wellbeing of single females was significantly lower than both married women and men (P = 0.017 and P < 0.0001, respectively). Gender differences were also found in satisfaction outside of work, with women reporting higher satisfaction than men before the COVID-19 pandemic (P = 0.0002).ConclusionOur study confirms that the enjoyment of work and general satisfaction of staff members has been significantly affected by the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Interestingly, being married appears to be a protective factor for wellbeing and resilience but the effect may be reversed for life satisfaction outside work. Our survey highlights the critical need for further research to examine gender differences using a wider range of methods.

This publication reports on Admitted Patient Care activity in England for the financial year 2024-25 This report includes but is not limited to analysis of hospital episodes by patient demographics, diagnoses, external causes/injuries, operations, bed days, admission method, time waited, specialty, provider level analysis and Adult Critical Care (ACC). It describes NHS Admitted Patient Care Activity, Adult Critical Care activity and performance in hospitals in England. The purpose of this publication is to inform and support strategic and policy-led processes for the benefit of patient care and may also be of interest to researchers, journalists and members of the public interested in NHS hospital activity in England. The data source for this publication is Hospital Episode Statistics (HES). It contains final data and replaces the provisional data that are released each month. HES contains records of all admissions, appointments and attendances at NHS-commissioned hospital services in England. The HES data used in this publication are called 'Finished Consultant Episodes', and each episode relates to a period of care for a patient under a single consultant at a single hospital. Therefore, this report counts the number of episodes of care for admitted patients rather than the number of patients. This publication shows the number of episodes during the period, with breakdowns including by patient's age, gender, diagnosis, procedure involved and by provider.

GP Practices - are UK wide and we cover the Practice Manager, the Senior GP and Senior Nurses. In every practice one of these is nominated as the main contact (our 'Chief Officer' category), to allow you to reach one person per practice if required. This will normally be the Practice Manager and is the contact for which we list an email address.

The National Health Service is the largest employer in the UK but is not a single homogenous organisation. Following devolution and major re-organisations in the past few years, the ways in which it is organised in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are continuing to diverge.

Our database covers senior and mid-level posts across all functions and areas of the NHS. This includes both the Management and Medical/Clinical sides.

England - the NHS has undergone considerable re-organisation since 2011 with Strategic Health Authorities and Primary Care Trusts being replaced by a new structure of healthcare provision. The vast majority of services are now provided or commissioned at a local level via groups of GP Surgeries, known as Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCG's), or at a secondary care level via Hospital Trusts. Public Health services are now provided by Local Authorities who also work with CCG's via Health and Wellbeing Boards to commission services jointly. There are also a number of new 'Community Healthcare' providers, in the form of Health and Care Trusts (NHS organisations) and Community Interest Companies (Social Enterprises). These organisations provide a range of community, mental health, primary care and nursing functions and sit alongside Local Authorities, CCG's and Secondary Care providers in many areas. These, along with some Secondary Care Acute Trusts which inherited them following the dissolution of PCT's run Community Hospitals, Clinics, Walk in Centres and some Dental services.

Scotland - has a simplified structure with Scottish Health Boards having control of all operational responsibilities within their geographical area. The Community Health Partnerships provide a range of community health services and they work closely with primary health care professionals as well as hospitals and local councils.

Wales - has established Local Health Boards and with the exception of one remaining NHS Trust, they deal with all Primary and Secondary Healthcare services.

Northern Ireland - also has single organisations - Health & Social Care Trusts, which along with several other national bodies, deal with co-ordinating and providing all the regions Healthcare services.
