Summary

The purpose of this indicator set is to help the National Health Service (NHS) monitor admissions for serious accidental injuries.

The directly age-standardised admission rate for accidents in persons of all ages was a target indicator in the Saving Lives: Our Healthier Nation strategy (See indicator specification “Further reading”).

The target was a 10% reduction by the year 2010 from the baseline rate in 1995/96.

For information on the definitions of what these indicators include, please see the relevant specification.

As of November 2018, the following indicators have been discontinued and there will be no further updates:
