The Health Service Capacity Review forecasts future capacity requirements in acute hospitals, primary care and in services for older persons (residential and homecare services) for the period to 2031.
The analysis takes account of current levels of demand and capacity, demographic and non-demographic factors that will drive future demand, and the potential impact that key system reforms can have on capacity needs.
