uin	210884
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/10/2014 answer text <p>Data on the numbers of personnel treated at the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre (DMRC) at Headley Court is only available from 2005 onwards. The following number of Service personnel from the UK, including Reservists, and other nations were treated at DMRC Headley Court between 1 January 2005 and 30 September 2014.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Number of Personnel</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Total number of personnel</p></td><td><p>9,599</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Pre 2008</p></td><td><p>293</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2008</p></td><td><p>1,218</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2009</p></td><td><p>2,491</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010</p></td><td><p>2,968</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011</p></td><td><p>3,090</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012</p></td><td><p>3,141</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013</p></td><td><p>2,719</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014</p></td><td><p>2,101</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>The total number of personnel does not match the sum of the yearly figures. This is because if an individual is treated in more than one year period, they are counted in each of those years, whereas they are counted only once in the total number of personnel. Further, where personnel have been treated for more than one injury, they have been counted only once.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The figures showing the number of appointments at DMRC prior to 1 September 2008 show the minimum number of people who were treated during that period. Personnel who were treated prior to 1 September 2008 whose departure date is not recorded are included only in the year of their arrival.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Broxtowe answering member printed Anna Soubry question first answered 27/10/2014 16:51:17 answering member 3938 label Biography information for Anna Soubry previous answer version 24030 answering member constituency Broxtowe answering member printed Anna Soubry answering member 3938 label Biography information for Anna Soubry
