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 from PCTs about whether this is the case in your local area. For full descriptions of the indicators, including definitions and limitations, please see the End of Life Care PCT Profiles - Indicators Metadata Guide.
