The 'total available beds' figure is the average daily number of available residential care beds in Nursing Homes, Residential Care Homes and Group Homes that are directly managed by the NHS.
Residential beds managed by other agencies such as Social Services are not included.
Figures are submitted annually on form KH03 by each NHS Trust.
Figures can be sub-divided into three Broad Patient Groups: mental illness, learning disabilities and other.
