Abstract
The existence of cottage hospital beds is historically determined rather than planned, and there is apparently no official ratio for the provision of such beds. A comparative study, in North-east Scotland, of populations with and without access to cottage hospital beds suggests that providing 1.5 beds per 1,000 population is a reasonable basis for future discussion and planning.
