Women in Dorset more than twice as likely than men to be hospitalised for self harm treatment

Women in Dorset are more than twice as likely as men to be admitted urgently to hospital for self-harm injuries, figures reveal. The Mental Health Foundation say the figures reflect higher rates of anxiety, depression and reported self-harm among women and girls, but that all genders should remain a priority for mental health support. Public Health England data shows that there were 940 admissions to hospital via A&E for self-harm injuries among residents of Dorset in 2019-20. It meant a rate of 408 admissions following self-harm per 100,000 women, and 191 per 100,000 men. Across England, there were 247 per 100,000 among women, and 140 for men in 2019-20 – meaning nearly two-thirds of the 108,000 patients admitted were female.
