The Emergency Department is a state of the art £6.2million new build completed in December 2014, and future proofs emergency care at Airedale. The ED benefits from a 4-bed resuscitation room (1 dedicated paediatric bay), 18 treatment rooms including an eye/ENT room, a paediatric HDU room, facilities for bariatric patients and patients with dementia, and internal CBRN decontamination facilities.

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. CT services are co-located and supported by 24/7 on-site radiographer cover supporting timely access to CT. There is an excellent co-located psychiatric liaison nurse service.

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. The Department actively engages with pathway development and has pioneered a trauma team study day which meets national Level one trauma nursing standards. Due to the unique geography of the region, Airedale continues to see trauma, across the age spectrum.
