The Hospital Episode Statistics contains details of all admissions to NHS hospitals and all NHS outpatient appointments in England. This intensive workshop introduces participants to HES data and how to handle and manipulate these very large data sets using computer software. Participants will engage in problem-solving exercises, analysing the information in highly interactive sessions.
The workshop is suitable for analysts working in Strategic Health Authorities, hospitals or Primary Care Trusts, and for health care researchers and PhD students.
