- DISCONTINUED DATA - Final available dataset: fin_2008_09 This indicator measures the impact of hospital services (acute and non-acute) and community-based care in facilitating timely and appropriate discharge from all hospitals for all adults. This measures the ability of the whole system to ensure appropriate discharge from hospital for the entire adult population, and is an indicator of the effectiveness of the interface between health and social care services. This indicator shows the average weekly rate of delayed transfers of care from all NHS hospitals, acute and non-acute, per 100,000 population aged 18+. A delayed transfer of care occurs when a patient is ready for transfer from a hospital bed, but is still occupying such a bed. This was previously reported as NI 131.
