Requested Information
I am writing to you to obtain information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

patients during the last 3 financial years (2011/12; 2012/13; and 2013/14)?
2) Please give a breakdown of the type of equipment used by the Trust and the amounts spent
(split between rental expenditure and purchased equipment) during the last 3 financial years

3) As of today’s date, how many bariatric beds does the Trust own?
4) I would also like to know how many bariatric patients have been admitted to your
hospital/hospitals during the financial year 2013/14? Please note that I am not interested in
bariatric procedures, but how many bariatric patients would/could require bariatric equipment
