admitted more than once within the year. The total number of patients over the three
Localities and over the three years do not necessarily sum to the total for Hull and the
total for over the three years respectively. It is possible that a small number of patients
within a year have lived in more than one Locality, and if this is the case they will be
counted/included in Table 150 for each Locality they have lived in during that year but
will only count once for the Hull total. When calculating the total number of patients
admitted over the three year period, it is highly likely that there will be some patients
who have been admitted during two or three of the financial years, as some of these are
long-term medical conditions. Table 151 presents the same information but relative to
the total population as estimated from the GP registration file (October 2008). It is not
unsurprising that West Locality has the highest admission rate per 100,000 resident
population and the highest number of patients admitted at some point during the
financial year per 100,000 resident population as this Locality covers the centre of the
city. People who may have alcohol dependence may be more likely to live in this
Locality due to the cost and type of accommodation provided within West Locality. Note
that Table 151 does not take into consideration the age structure of the population, and
this could have an influence on the admission rate. However, despite this limitation, the
tables give an indication on the absolute number of admissions and patients, and the
relative difference among the three Localities in terms of the rates.
