Adur as a whole

71.6/ 100

England 77.2 · 95% interval 67.3 to 74.7

The area’s Practice score is the average over its 4 rated practices. On average they are 5.6 points below the England average (95% interval: 2.5 to 9.9 points below). The Practice score weighs patient experience, the share of patients who describe their practice as good (70%), and access (30%): the share of appointments within two weeks of booking and the share of calls the practice answers, from NHS England’s latest monthly data.

Below the England average

This compares patients’ answers in the area as a whole with England’s, every rated practice counting equally, as each practice’s label compares its patients’ answers. Access moves the figure above, not this. It says nothing about any single practice: see each practice’s own page.

Hospital care and dementia

MeasureAdurEngland
Emergency hospital admissions for falls, per 100,000 people aged 65 and over2024/25, age-standardised, 95% interval 1,955 to 2,4112,1741,958
Hip fractures, per 100,000 people aged 65 and over2024/25, age-standardised, 95% interval 405 to 625507536
Estimated dementia diagnosis rate, people aged 65 and over2026, as at 31 March, 95% interval 55.2 to 69.762.7%66.3%

The hospital figures are age-standardised, so an older population does not raise them. Since 2022/23 some hospital trusts report same-day emergency care in another dataset, which can lower the admissions counted.

The dementia rate is the number of people with a recorded diagnosis out of the number estimated to have dementia. It is counted by where the practice is, not where patients live.

Care homes

Beds are counted where the home is, not where its residents come from, and people under 75 also live in care homes.
