Day Care
Tables 3.3 and 3.4 provide information on day care services primarily intended for people with mental health problems. Day care figures for other client groups are included in chapters 1, 2, 4 and 5. Please refer to the notes in annex A for definitions on which the data are collected.
In 1998 a new methodology was introduced for dealing with non-response. Care should be taken when comparing time series data before and after 1998 as the figures may not be directly comparable. Please refer to annex A for more details.
