Data processing statements for the three workstreams within the RCP's Falls and Fragility Fracture Audit Programme (FFFAP).

The National Hip Fracture Database collects data on all patients admitted to hospital with hip fractures and improves their care through auditing which is fed back to hospitals through targeted reports.
Fracture Liaison Service Database (FLS-DB)
The Fracture Liaison Service Database aims to evaluate patterns of assessment and treatment for osteoporosis and falls across primary and secondary care.
National Audit of Inpatient Falls (NAIF)
The National Audit of Inpatient Falls measures compliance against national standards of best practice in reducing risk of falls within acute care.
