Deaths following time in hospital - one page summary

NHS Digital continually strives to improve the quality and content of our products and services. In July 2015 we piloted a new one page summary to accompany our quarterly Summary Hospital-level Mortality Indicator (SHMI) publication which aimed to provide a more user-friendly introduction to this topic.

In order to help us to develop this format further, a user feedback survey inviting comments on this new format was set up. The survey was available for a period of one month and 90 responses were received.

The majority of respondents stated that the one page summary was a useful addition to the existing resources on this topic and so from October 2015 onwards we have routinely published this format alongside the more detailed SHMI report.

We continue to welcome feedback on the summary. This should be sent to enquiries@nhsdigital.nhs.uk with 'SHMI summary' in the subject line.
