Did you know we have a dedicated powers and duties tool?
Available to LG Inform Plus subscribers, it provides information on what current legislation gives English and Welsh councils the power to do and what it requires them to do in law. Advanced searching and filtering options make it easy to find specific powers and duties based on legislation, business function and keyword, and results are easily exported in commonly used formats.

Number of community health care services - Nurses Agency only in an area per 1,000 population (10329) Metric type
- Help text
- This metric is derived by the LGA (Local Government Association) from the CQC (Care Quality Commission's) Care Directory file, the file contains a complete list of the places in England where care is regulated by CQC. Using the National Statistics Postcode Lookup, we have counted the number of community health care services - nurses agencies located in an area and then created a crude rate per 1,000 resident population. These services supply a range of healthcare staff other than doctors, for example, nurses or allied health professionals, to people who need healthcare support in their own home, in community settings or in child development units.
The care provided may be short or long term, and meet acute or chronic healthcare needs. The services may help people to live independently in the community and they are directly responsible for the quality of the care and support provided by the staff they supply, and do not include employment agencies.

Data are extracted once a quarter and provide a snapshot in time. It should be noted that due to changes to postcodes a small proportion cannot be matched to the latest National Statistics Postcode Lookup file and are therefore excluded from these figures.
