Overview
Public Health datasets provide a view of the location and distribution of pharmacies, health centres and regulated care services. They can be used to compare healthcare infrastructure, assess levels of local provision and add important healthcare context to wider place-based analysis. This helps organisations understand how well provision varies between communities, where healthcare access may vary and how health-related services contribute to the wider local environment around a site, catchment or territory.
