You’ll join a forward-thinking multidisciplinary team supporting patients with acute and complex needs across the Kirklees community. Working closely with Acute Consultants, GPs, and healthcare professionals, you will help prevent hospital admissions and enable safe, early discharge.

This service operates as part of the Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield (CKW) integrated care system, ensuring coordinated, patient-centered care across the region.
