Social Care and Mental Health Indicators from the National Indicator Set

This National Indicator Set (NIS) underpins the performance framework for local government and meets the then government's commitment, as set out in the local government White Paper Strong and Prosperous Communities, to introduce a clear set of national outcomes and a single set of national indicators by which to measure them. The NHS Information Centre collects information on 12 of the indicators which relate to social care and mental health services.

本国家指标集（NIS）构成了地方政府绩效框架的基础，并履行了当时政府在《强盛繁荣社区》地方政府白皮书中所承诺的引入一套清晰的国家成果和一套单一的国家指标，以便对之进行衡量的承诺。国家卫生信息中心收集了与社会保障和精神健康服务相关的12个指标的详细信息。
