A broken hip (hip fracture) is serious and needs treatment in hospital straight away. It usually happens after a fall and is more common in older people and people with osteoporosis. Almost everyone needs surgery, either to fix the broken bone with screws, nails, rods or plates, or to replace part or all of the hip joint.
If you think someone has broken their hip, call 999. You do not choose the hospital: the ambulance takes you to the nearest suitable one. This page is for understanding the care at your local hospital. The figures come from the National Hip Fracture Database, which records almost every hip fracture treated in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

How to read this
- Not a ranking. The table is in alphabetical order. A higher volume does not on its own mean better care, and we do not combine the columns into a score.
- Volume bands. Cut points are the lower quartile, median and upper quartile of all 160 hospitals in the NHFD 2026 report in the published table, rounded. So about a quarter of hospitals in the NHFD 2026 report fall in each band. The exact number is shown under the band.
- Risk adjustment. Where a figure says “adjusted”, the audit has allowed for differences in the patients each hospital treats, such as age and other illnesses. Hospitals that take on more complex cases can still look different for reasons the adjustment does not capture.
- Bands and limits. We only say a result is higher or lower than expected when the source itself says so (for example NJR outlier status, NELA funnel limits, SSNAP levels, CQC survey bands). Where the source publishes a rate without limits we show the rate and the national figure, and say “No banding published”.
- Small numbers. A small hospital can have 0% or a high percentage by chance. Figures the source suppresses are shown as “Not published (small numbers)”.
- Trust or hospital. Volumes and outcomes here are for each hospital or team, but waiting times and the CQC inpatient survey are for the whole trust.
- Different periods. Each figure has its own period, shown next to it. Audit results describe operations done one to three years ago; waiting times are updated monthly.
- National figures. National figures are the average of all hospitals in the NHFD file, weighted by number of cases (our calculation); the NHFD file has no national row.
- Talk to your GP or consultant about what the figures mean for you. If you are referred for planned care in England, you can usually choose your hospital.
