The line graph below depicts patient admissions at Fortsmith, Adlin, Santon, Bradley, and Oxley hospitals in European countries between 2004 and 2018.
Overall, it is clear that Bradley Hospital had the highest number of patient admissions by 2018.
In 2004, Oxley Hospital was the most popular hospital in the country, with approximately 240 patients admitted. However, it experienced fluctuations over the decade. A noticeable slope can be seen in the two years following 2004; although there was a slight rise from 2006 to 2008, its popularity could not be sustained, leading to a gradual decline to nearly 110 admissions by 2018.
In comparison, Bradley Hospital recorded around 200 patients in 2004. This number steadily increased to approximately 255 in 2012, but there was a significant decline until 2014. Ultimately, admissions peaked at 260 in 2018. Meanwhile, Adlin Hospital displayed fluctuations over the same period. Beginning with roughly 80 admissions, its popularity gradually increased in 2006, but it faced a slight drop in 2008 before rising again. After 2010, there was a steep rise in admissions for Adlin, and by 2012, Adlin and Oxley had equal numbers of admissions.
Fortsmith and Santon also experienced fluctuations throughout the period. Both hospitals saw significant increases in admissions; however, Fortsmith and Santon faced notable drops in 2012 and 2014, respectively. Fortunately, these declines were offset by a notable surge in admissions afterward.
