*These figures do not include doctors in the general medical services scheme. †This is the total figure for social workers in health boards. It is not possible to provide a breakdown as many social workers based in hospitals are also employed on community work. The numbers of home helps employed fluctuates considerably and it is not practicable for my Department to keep an ongoing record of their deployment.
