An issue has been identified with the data used to produce the care homes factsheets and place of death factsheets. This has resulted in an undercount of deaths reported for July 2022. Further updates have been suspended while this issue is being investigated.
The palliative and end of life care profiles are presented in an interactive tool which aims to help local government and health services improve care at the end of life.
