§ Tim LoughtonTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what proportion of NHS beds are single room beds, broken down by hospital trust. [145045]
§ Mr. HuttonThe data requested has been placed in the Library. The proportion of single rooms will vary from trust to trust depending on the services provided. Where primary care trusts have beds it is usually in a single hospital and where this provides mental health services, treatment patterns are likely to dictate a high proportion of single rooms.
