FOI 2023 60 - Falls and Costs

 

Information Requested:

I’ve located the attached report from 2011, however I was wondering whether you have something more recent that I could refer to.
Looking specifically on information regarding falls, and the following breakdown on costs:
•    Cost per 999 call
•    Cost per Ambulance call out
•    Cost per hospital bed stay
•    Average length of stay following a fall

 

Information provided for the answer:

Thank you for your recent request dated 28th April 2023.

I’m afraid that Public Health Wales does not hold the information requested. As an organisation we have no jurisdiction over the activities of Health Boards and frequently do not have access to the data that they produce.

I have provided contact details for each Health Board below, you would need to contact them individually for this information.
