We have a co-located ENP led minor injuries unit. There are separate paediatric and adult waiting areas, and a chair centric care area with long ranging views over the Yorkshire countryside. X-ray facilities and a plaster room are within the department and there is an excellent departmental ultrasound machine.

The department benefits from a purpose built co-located multi-specialty Acute Assessment Unit and Ambulatory Care Unit enabling high quality same-day emergency care (SDEC), and strong collaborative relationships with inpatient specialty colleagues.

Our ED sees approximately 70,000 patients per year and is part of the West Yorkshire Trauma Network.
