The Office for National Statistics publishes population estimates for health geographies, including integrated care board. The data is available at the following link:

The Department does not hold information on the number of clinical staff in community hospital in-patient care and home-based care. Staff are employed by National Health Service trusts and may be employed across a more than one type of setting over the course of their work.
