NHS Bristol is the Primary Care Trust serving the people of Bristol. The Department of Public Health employs an Injury Prevention Manager to lead on injury prevention. This includes represeting the four Primary Care Trusts in the old Avon area on the West of England Road Safety Partnership.
NHS Bristols public health priorities include redcuning the numbers of emergency admissions to hopsital beds from transport related injuries and uses Hospital Episode Statistics to prioritise vulnerable groups and monitor changes. Hand in hand with this objective are the taks of stimulating Active Travel to reduce carbon emissions, improve the liveability of cities and challenge the obesity epidemic.
