Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre, Headley Court – Inpatient (Ward) Attendance

Abstract: This ad hoc statistical bulletin provides information regarding UK Armed Forces and Civilians admissions to, discharges from, and length of admission to Inpatient (Ward) clinics at the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre, Headley Court (DMRC). In addition, the initial indicator of severity of injury/illness prior to admission plus the numbers of those remaining in Service (and their Medical Deployability Standard (MDS)) following admission to DMRC, are included. This ad hoc statistical bulletin has been provided to support the work being undertaken on the economic benefits associated with the National (N) Element of the Defence National Rehabilitation Centre (DNRC) development on the Stanford Hall Estate. The statistics were provided to aid (1) a comparison of the patients admitted to DMRC with those seen by the National Health Service (NHS) and (2) a comparison of the different types of rehabilitative care provided by DMRC and the NHS. The publication of the bulletin ensures that MOD is open and transparent about the methodology and quality of the statistics and that equal access is given to all, as required by the Code of Practice for Official Statistics.
