The NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) will meet in public on Tuesday 16 December at Bradford Arts Centre, 41 Bank Street, Bradford BD1 1RD. The meeting will be available to watch on the ICB website.
At the meeting, the board will discuss ICB organisational change, how the ICB is ensuring that people remain at the heart of decision making, the Bradford Health and Wellbeing Strategy and the work of the West Yorkshire community care collaborative.
The Board is part of the legislation set out in the Health and Care Act 2022, which came into force on the 1 July 2022. It focuses on improving outcomes for people by addressing health inequalities, the difference in care received and effective use of budgets across the area. It is part of West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership, an integrated care system.
The board’s role includes delivering the Joint Forward Plan for health and care services in West Yorkshire as part of the area’s five-year strategy. Most decisions about circa £5 billion budget and the services delivered locally are made in the five local places of West Yorkshire, via its strong local place partnerships in Bradford District and Craven, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds, and Wakefield District.
The board also works alongside care provider collaboratives, such as The West Yorkshire Association of Acute Trusts, the Mental Health, Learning Disability and Autism Collaborative, Community Care Collaborative and hospices working together.
