According to a survey carried out in the United Kingdom in 2023, almost ** percent of the public trusted their health data to be handled securely by GP practices and NHS hospitals and clinics. The least trusted types of organizations in the UK were the local and national governments, followed by health technology companies.

The Obesity Profile (previously named NCMP and Child Obesity Profile) displays data from the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) showing the prevalence of obesity, severe obesity, overweight, healthy weight and underweight at local authority (LA), regional and national level over time; for children in Reception (aged 4 to 5 years) and Year 6 (aged 10 to 11 years).

Users can compare LA data by region or between ‘The Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) nearest neighbours’ (LAs with similar characteristics).

The tool also presents inequalities in child obesity prevalence by sex, deprivation quintile and ethnic group by local authority. The profile also includes child obesity slope index of inequality (SII) for each of the 9 English regions and England.

School closures, in March 2020, due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic meant that in 2019 to 2020 the number of children measured was around 75% of previous years. Analysis by NHS Digital shows that national and regional level data is reliable and comparable to previous years. The data at local authority level and below is not as robust, as a result a small number of areas do not have published data for 2019 to 2020 and data for some areas have a reliability flag indicating that figures need to be interpreted with caution. Further information is available in the Obesity Profile and in the https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/publications/statistical/national-child-measurement-programme/2019-20-school-year">NHS Digital 2019 to 2020 annual report .

The NCMP small area data domain displays trend data on the prevalence of excess weight (overweight including obesity) and obesity for Middle Super Output Areas (MSOAs), Electoral Wards, and Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCG) with comparator data for local authorities and England.

To produce as robust an indicator as possible at small area level, the prevalence estimates use three years of NCMP data combined; the latest data is presented for 2017 to 2018 up to 2019 to 2020 combined. In the three-year grouped NCMP data for small areas we would expect around 33% of data from each contributing year. Values for areas where less than 20% of data is from 2019 to 2020 is flagged in the Obesity Profile. The percentage contribution of 2019 to 2020 data to the three-year data for each geographic area is available on the https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/publications/statistical/national-child-measurement-programme/2019-20-school-year">NHS Digital website. The obesity, and excess weight prevalence indicators at small area level for 2017 to 2018 up to 2019 to 2020 are still considered to be reliable even with a small amount of data from 2019 to 2020.

A new domain (Adult prevalence data) has been added to this profile to display indicators on adult excess weight and obesity in early pregnancy. More indicators for other adult BMI categories will be added in 2021.

Several different organisation types which either did not warrant their own dedicated file at the point of creation, or did not easily fit within an existing file.

In 2024, the majority of respondents in the United Kingdom said they had high trust in NHS organizations when it comes to handling their health data. GP practices were the most trusted, with ** percent of people expressing high trust, followed closely by local NHS hospitals and national NHS organizations. In contrast, the level of trust was significantly lower for government bodies and private organizations, with only about a ***** of respondents saying they had high trust for the national or local government with their health data.

Terms of Use No special restrictions or limitations on using the item’s content have been provided.

We have a duty to dispose of a deceased body under the provisions of the National Assistance and Public Health (Control of Disease) Acts 1948, if the person who died has no assets or if there are no relatives who can make funeral arrangments. Hospitals and care homes may also be able to help if the person dies while in their care. Initial contact is usually through the Coroner. If the next of kin is known, contact will be made to establish if they will accept responsability. Legal responsability for married couples rests with the spouse, and for children it rests with the parents. We will provide a basic funeral and will not pay for the following:

Notice in newspapers. Flowers. Transport.

Where no one is prepared to accept responsability for the funeral, we will require details of the deceased assets and reciver the costs if there are sufficient funds available. If known, the deceased's wishes wll be observed, for example, cremation as opposed to burial. However, if burial is undertaken it will be an un-purchased grave therefore no headstone can be erected. A list of Public Health funerals arranged by Newcastle City Council is listed on this website. Below is our listed funerals data dating up to December 2016.

• to provide annual data about the nation’s health;
• to estimate the proportion of people in England with specified health conditions;
• to estimate the prevalence of certain risk factors associated with these conditions;
• to examine differences between population subgroups in their likelihood of having specific conditions or risk factors;
• to assess the frequency with which particular combinations of risk factors are found, and which groups these combinations most commonly occur;
• to monitor progress towards selected health targets
• since 1995, to measure the height of children at different ages, replacing the National Study of Health and Growth;
• since 1995, monitor the prevalence of overweight and obesity in children.

The survey includes a number of core questions every year but also focuses on different health issues at each wave. Topics are revisited at appropriate intervals in order to monitor change.

Changes to the HSE from 2015:
Users should note that from 2015 survey onwards, only the individual data file is available under standard End User Licence (EUL). The household data file is now only included in the Special Licence (SL) version, released from 2015 onwards. In addition, the SL individual file contains all the variables included in the HSE EUL dataset, plus others, including variables removed from the EUL version after the NHS England disclosure review. The SL HSE is subject to more restrictive access conditions than the EUL version (see Access information). Users are advised to obtain the EUL version to see if it meets their needs before considering an application for the SL version.

COVID-19 and the HSE:
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the HSE 2020 survey was stopped in March 2020 and never re-started. There was no publication that year. The survey resumed in 2021, albeit with an amended methodology. The full HSE resumed in 2022, with an extended fieldwork period. Due to this, the decision was taken not to progress with the 2023 survey, to maximise the 2022 survey response and enable more robust reporting of data. See the NHS Digital Health Survey for England - Health, social care and lifestyles webpage for more details.

For the fifth edition (April 2010), three new children's Body Mass Index (BMI) variables have been added to the individual data file (bmicat1, bmicat2, bmicat3). Further information is available in the documentation and on the Information Centre for Health and Social Care Health Survey for England web page.

The 2001 Health Survey for England (HSE01) consists of a general population sample and is designed to provide data at both national and regional level about the population living in private households in England. All private households in the general population sample are eligible for inclusion in the survey (up to a maximum of three households per address). Up to two children aged 0-15 are interviewed in each household, as well as up to 10 adults aged 16 and over. Information was obtained directly from persons aged 13 and over. Information about children under 13 was obtained from a parent with the child present.
An interview with each eligible person was followed by a nurse visit both using computer assisted interviewing. The survey is conducted throughout the year to take into consideration seasonal differences.

For the third edition (April 2010), three new children's Body Mass Index (BMI) variables have been added to the individual data file (bmicat1, bmicat2, bmicat3). Further information is available in the documentation and on the Information Centre for Health and Social Care Health Survey for England web page.

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.

Objectives – To assess the relationship between UK-based patient organisation funding and companies’ commercial interests in rare and non-rare diseases in 2020. Design – Retrospective analysis of the value and volume of payments from pharmaceutical companies to patient organisations in the UK matched with data on the conditions supported by patient organisations and drugs in companies’ approved portfolios and research and development pipelines. Setting – UK. Participants – 74 pharmaceutical companies making payments to 341 UK-based patient organisations. Main outcome measures – Alignment between the commercial interests of pharmaceutical companies and the disease area focus of patient organisations; difference in the volume and value of payments to patient organisations broken down by prevalence of conditions; industry funding concentration, measured as the number of companies funding each patient organisations, the share of overall industry funding coming from each contributing company...

Initially this data is collected during a patient's time at hospital as part of the Commissioning Data Set (CDS). This is submitted to NHS Digital for processing and is returned to healthcare providers as the Secondary Uses Service (SUS) data set and includes information relating to payment for activity undertaken. It allows hospitals to be paid for the care they deliver. This same data can also be processed and used for non-clinical purposes such as research and planning health services. Because these uses are not to do with direct patient care they are called 'secondary uses'. This is the SUS data set. SUS data covers all NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in England including: 1. private patients treated in NHS hospitals 2. patients resident outside of England 3. care delivered by treatment centres (including those in the independent sector) funded by the NHS

Each SUS record contains a wide range of information about an individual patient admitted to an NHS hospital including: 1. clinical information about diagnoses and operations 2. patient information such as age group gender and ethnicity 3. administrative information such as dates and methods of admission and discharge 4. geographical information such as where patients are treated and the area where they live

NHS Digital apply a strict statistical disclosure control in accordance with the NHS Digital protocol to all published SUS data. This suppresses small numbers to stop people identifying themselves and others to ensure that patient confidentiality is maintained.

Who SUS is for SUS provides data for the purpose of healthcare analysis to the NHS government and others including:

The Secondary Users Service (SUS) database is made up of many data items relating to A&E care delivered by NHS hospitals in England. Many of these items form part of the national Commissioning Data Set (CDS) and are generated by the patient administration systems within each hospital. 1. national bodies and regulators such as the Department of Health NHS England Public Health England NHS Improvement and the CQC 2. local Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) 3. provider organisations 4. government departments 5. researchers and commercial healthcare bodies 6. National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) 7. patients service users and carers 8. the media

Uses of the statistics The statistics are known to be used for: 1. national policy making 2. benchmarking performance against other hospital providers or CCGs 3. academic research 4. analysing service usage and planning change 5. providing advice to ministers and answering a wide range of parliamentary questions 6. national and local press articles 7. international comparison

Context

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.

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?
