Injured but not killed - can we find them?

Hi all. If someone was injured in the war and ended up in hospital and were no longer in the War, can we still find their info or is it only those that were killed? Have found out a rellie had shell shock from WWI but don't know how to find his info. Alternatively, is there a way to find out the names of ALL people that took part - or is that being too ridiculous as there were so many? Thanks in advance.

With a bit of luck you might find a medal card here, but they don't give much information. http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/documentsonline/medals.asp
