1. Can your organisation reveal the number of hospitalisations that happened in the NHS Shetland area between 2007 and 2022 as a result of dog attacks (or more specifically dog bites)?
With regards to pre 2016 data then in accordance with FOISA s 17(1), NHS Shetland confirms that it does not hold the information requested.
See attached spreadsheet for 2016-2022 data where the presenting complaint included the word dog.
2. If so, can you break down the data including age range & gender across the health board?
