We are informed by the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) that it does not register care homes according to the number of people from a specific client group, such as those suffering dementia, which they may accommodate. CSCI will register a home as being able to care for at least one person from a particular client group. CSCI is able to produce data from 2004. Information from earlier years is not available centrally.
The following table shows the numbers of care homes and registered places in each local authority area within the Yorkshire and Humberside region where at least one place in the home is registered as at 15 December 2008 to provide dementia care.

They indicate which groups they can provide at least one place for. The number of registered places shown is for all client groups homes have informed CSCI they can accommodate as at 15 December 2008. This is because CSCI does not hold historic data for client group registration. 2 Local council data are derived from the postcode of the service. Where post code is not provided the service is recorded as Unknown. Source: CSCI database (static cut 02/05/08).
