The evidence that admission to hospital affects the use of community services by the elderly is conflicting and incomplete. 2711 over 65's admitted to acute hospitals in Wales were studied, using a postal questionnaire, comparing services used before and after admission. Usage of services did increase although at 1 year had dropped back. The patterns of usage are described, relating them to the types of patient. Entering hospital did not lead to losing contact with community services previously used.
