How to use this document
This document has been created to complement the 2015-16 Adult Social Care Outcomes
Framework (ASCOF) Handbook of Definitions published by the Department of Health. A number
of the measures within the ASCOF suite draw on data from the Short and Long Term (SALT)
collection.
This document illustrates the sources for ASCOF data within SALT. It covers all ASCOF measures
that take data from SALT and shows the data sources broken down between (where applicable)
the numerator and denominator.
In order to aid identification of the data utilised in the ASCOF measures, annotated copies of the
tables from SALT are provided as per the example below:
Figure 1: Example SALT table
How to interpret the annotated tables
1. The cells highlighted in pink or dark blue are those that contain data used in.
2. In some instances, a copy of a SALT table may cover two tables as they are identical apart
from covering different age bands. In the example above (figure 1) both tables 1a (for ages
18 to 64) and 1b (for age 65 and over) are relevant. This is confirmed in the title of the
annotated table shown above.
3. Highlighted cells contain text confirming which ASCOF measure it refers to. In the above
example, the data is used in ASCOF measure 1C part 1a. Measure numbers are always
capitalised; constituent parts of measures are in lower case.
4. It is the sum total of the contents of all cells that contribute to the ASCOF measure.
5. Numerator data are highlighted in pink with black text and denominator data are highlighted
in dark blue with white text. This distinction is also clear from the headings within the
document.
Colours used in data cells in SALT tables in this document:
1C part 2a
ASCOF numerator

Voluntary cells for 2015-16
Totals automatically calculated from other cells in the table
In STS002a and STS002b, these cells contain the long term support
sequels that should be reported in table 4 but do not contain any text
