Facts on Children’s Hospitals
The following collection of slides and accompanying notes presents some initial analyses of data generated from the HHARP databases, providing comparisons between the Great Ormond Street, Evelina and Glasgow hospitals : total admissions by year; by home address of patient; by result of stay in hospital; by cause of admission.
