Local Authority Profiles 2012 PDFs

You can download PDF Profiles for each top tier local authority in England from this page. They are organised by Strategic Health Authority (SHA). Click on 'Show' next to the relevant SHA to see the list of local authorities in that SHA. Click on your chosen local authority to download the PDF Profile.

We strongly recommend that you use the End of Life Care Local Authority Profiles - Indicators Metadata Guide to help you understand the indicators. This is especially important for the social care indicators, which are included here for the first time.

We are also very keen to receive feedback about the profiles. Please send comments to neolcin at phe dot gov.uk link [email protected] .

Important note on place of death data

These profiles use Office for National Statistics (ONS) data for place of death. The ONS categorises place of death by address. As a result, it is not possible to distinguish between hospital deaths and deaths in specialist palliative care units/ hospices that are based in hospitals. This means that, in many areas, the indicator showing hospital deaths will be an over-count and hospice deaths an under-count. This is a known limitation of the data. We would be most grateful for feedback about whether this is the case in your local area.
