RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Morbidity trends in the population of a specialised homeless primary care service JF British Journal of General Practice JO Br J Gen Pract FD British Journal of General Practice SP 200 OP 202 DO 10.3399/bjgp11X561203 VO 61 IS 584 A1 Nigel Hewett A1 Anna Hiley A1 Jane Gray YR 2011 UL http://bjgp.org/content/61/584/200.abstract AB An increasing body of research demonstrates that homelessness is an independent risk factor for morbidity and premature death. This paper compares the frequency of diagnoses between 2003 and 2009 in the computerised records of a specialist practice for homeless people. The changing morbidity trends revealed offer a basis for comparison with other services and suggest benefits from collaborative working, particularly around substance misuse and mental health.
