YAS HALO

The #LeedsHALO team has received a #CEEDAward from @LeedsHospitals What an awesome achievement. Thank you so much @MyiED for the support and nomination. Here is to the future relationship of Ambulance Service and Hospitals. #oneteam #YASHALO #LTHT #Leeds @YorksAmbulance

Choosing the best healthcare service for your needs enables us to make sure that we are available to help those with life-threatening illnesses or injuries. Use our graphic to help you make the right choice this winter.

⚠️ Our hospitals are under significant pressure. If you need care but it is not an emergency, please call NHS 111 or use 111.nhs.uk and you will be directed to the most appropriate place. The NHS 111 team can also help you to make an appointment to attend urgent treatment centres and minor injuries units in Leeds. This includes the Shakespeare primary care Walk-in Centre is open every day 8am-8pm. - Urgent Treatment Centres at St George’s Centre, Middleton, and Wharfdale Hospital, Otley, are open every day 8am-11pm. - Find a list of local pharmacies here: nhs.uk/service-search… Your local pharmacy can provide expert, confidential advice and treatment, and there is no need for an appointment. For more support visit: healthandcareleeds.org/health/service…

Our Emergency Departments are always busy, and our teams manage this really well but there are long waits at the moment. If you are not seriously ill, our hospitals may not be the best place for you to get the treatment you need. For people who need immediate medical help where it isn’t an emergency, NHS 111 is available on the phone and online 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week. Minor injury units or walk-in centres can help with injuries or illnesses where people cannot get a GP appointment or it’s not an emergency. Local pharmacists can also give advice on illnesses and the medicines needed to treat them. Information about where to find help in Leeds can be found here: leedsth.nhs.uk/stay-well Thank you for your support

#HappyMothersDay to Mums everywhere, and especially those who work or volunteer in our service. To the Mums working at YAS today, thank you for helping patients across Yorkshire.

Something we really focus on is patient care and last week we were lucky enough to sit down with the @MyiED Pharmacist from @LeedsHospitals who talked to us about the importance of bringing patients medication to hospital with them when transported by ambulance. #MISSED @AACE_org

Alot of work going into our #ServiceImprovement week next week. We are really looking forward to supporting crews with pathways to support patient care at SJUH. #collaboration #teamwork #Yashalo @LeedsHospitals @MyiED @YorksAmbulance

@KangaAlly @MyiED @LTHTAMS Thank you @KangaAlly for supporting us. Its been great to work with you. All the best with the new role. ❤️👍🏻

AND THAT’S A WRAP @MyiED Ready for the next adventure @LTHTAMS

Thinks its safe to say we are definitely supporting the 2024-29 strategy and as we continue to work in collaboration with @LeedsHospitals we are proud of the relationships we have created to support patient care and crew wellbeing, knowledge and confidence.

Our colleagues at @LeedsHospitals @MyiED have been filming to highlight the horrific increase in knife crime and how it has affected all those involved. #stopknifecrime

@acutemedLTHT @ArundelMorag @moxon_jessA @H_A_Mercer @StuartNuttall1 Awesome work and a great team 👍🏻

One month birthday! After opening a month ago, 1000+ patients have walked through our doors! Never underestimate a small team, they can achieve amazing things! Well done to everyone for your continued hard work #smallbutmighty 💪🏻 #TeamAIM

Our hospitals are under significant pressure. Please only attend Emergency Departments with life-threatening emergencies. For anything else call NHS 111 or visit 111.nhs.uk or think about these services: Shakespeare primary care Walk-in Centre is open every day 8am-8pm. Urgent Treatment Centres at St George’s Centre, Middleton, and Wharfdale Hospital, Otley, are open every day 8am-11pm. Find a list of local pharmacies here: nhs.uk/service-search… Your local pharmacy can provide expert, confidential advice and treatment, and there is no need for an appointment.

Please be careful if you’re heading out on the town tonight so you don’t end up needing our help and taking vital resources away from people in a life-threatening emergency #drinkresponsibly

Did you know? Last year 36.7% of patients who called 999 and received a response from us did not need to be taken to hospital by ambulance because it was more appropriate for them to receive the care they needed elsewhere or they did not require further treatment.

Christmas lights ready for Santa to land on the @YorkshireAirAmb helipad to visit @MyiED at @LeedsHospitals @Leeds_Childrens #Christmaseve #lgi #Santa

@YorksAmbulance @yas_charity Nice one Lewis 👍🏻

Our @yas_charity is supporting colleagues working on Christmas Day with welfare packages. Communications Assistant Lewis is giving out the food and drink in our Emergency Operations Centre. “Both my parents work at YAS on Christmas Day so I am more than happy to give my time."

🌲🎁Happy Christmas and Happy New Year🎁🌲 We hope you all have a great Christmas and a happy and healthy 2024. We will be working over the festive period to support crews and patient care. 🌲🎁🌲🎁🌲🎁🌲🎁🌲🎁🌲 Dan and Gav @LeedsHospitals @MyiED @YorksAmbulance

Dan's message this Christmas is to use our services wisely and keep emergency ambulances available for those in a serious or life-threatening condition. Please consider 111.nhs.uk, an Urgent Treatment Centre, your GP or local pharmacy for other health needs.

@KangaAlly @LTHTAMS Congratulations Ali. Happy for you

So the last three years have taught me so much but the biggest lesson is that I have learnt the kind of job I really want and today I was lucky enough to get it. Excited to be heading back to surgery and the pancreatic services. @LTHTAMS

Our info board is up at SJUH to support crews on the handover process and pathways. #yasinfo #YASHALO #Infoboard #sjuh #HIPMANN @MyiED @LeedsHospitals

No longer need an ambulance or making your own way to hospital? Please call us back on 999 to let us know. Our crews can then be redirected to other patients in need. Do not call us back to ask about an estimated arrival time.
