The West Yorkshire Major Trauma Network has been established to bring together Major Trauma Care across West Yorkshire. The Network is hosted by Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. The Network is made up of one Major Trauma Centre for adults and paediatric and five Trauma Units. The aim of the Network is to ensure that all patients that require major trauma services have access to the right level of care at the right time, in the right environment.
The Network approach is to work collaboratively across West Yorkshire to ensure standards of care are the same at both the Major Trauma Centre and the Trauma Units. The purpose behind the Network is to develop an integrated care pathway that improves outcomes for patients and families.
The Network is primarily served by Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust and also by the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
