Notes: | ||||||||
Turnover data is based on headcount. | ||||||||
These joiners are to City Hospitals Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust and to the HCHS Doctors staff group. | ||||||||
These figures include junior doctors. | ||||||||
Following a public consultation in 2015, categorisation of trusts and staff groups has changed therefore restricting comparability with previous publications. | ||||||||
More details regarding these changes can be found in the outcomes of the consultation document available at the link below. | ||||||||
Data quality | ||||||||
The HSCIC seeks to minimise inaccuracies and the effect of missing and invalid data but responsibility for data accuracy lies with the organisations providing the data. | ||||||||
Methods are continually being updated to improve data quality. Where changes impact on figures already published, this is assessed but unless it is significant at national level figures are not changed. | ||||||||
Impact at detailed or local level is footnoted in relevant analyses. | ||||||||
