Mental health in the UK armed forces: background quality report

 

Defence Statistics produce a series of publications detailing the mental health of UK Armed Forces personnel.

The Quarterly UK Armed Forces Mental Health Report is a quarterly publication, first released in July 2007.

  2. Time trend graphs providing the percentage of personnel at risk for patients seen at MOD Specialist Mental Health Services by initial assessment by quarter since April 2007.

  3. Summary tables covering the latest five quarter period on the number of personnel seen at MOD Specialist Mental Health Services and the number of new episodes of care.

  4. Supplementary tables in MS excel provide information on the number and rate per 1,000 personnel at risk for the number of patients and the number of new episodes of care by Regular/Reservist status, Service, Gender, Rank, diagnosis and deployment status for the latest five quarter period.
