Alcohol Related Incidents in Policing and Emergency Healthcare
This project uses data from West Midlands Police, as well as Accident and Emergency admissions data from NHS England. The data is being used to better understand and predict alcohol related demand in both policing and healthcare services.
By analysing patterns of incidents across these services, we can identify the effect of the societal and economic environment so that demand can be better predicted and interventions better targeted.
A particular focus of this research is to identify the relationship between the rate of alcohol related incidents and price promotions on alcoholic drinks.
