Older people’s mental health inpatient services (OPS) – public consultation

Thank you for visiting our website. This consultation closed on Friday 29 March 2024.

Thank you to everyone who filled out a survey, we received over 1,000 responses.

Over the coming months we will be looking at what people told us, in partnership with NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB), to help inform our decision. We are working through a timeline for when we hope to make a decision, which will be published on our website once available.

We will share the report of our findings on our website here: Engagement and consultation – South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust

You can still browse this website for information about our proposals to create specialist inpatient wards for older people with dementia, and other mental health needs (such as anxiety, depression or psychosis), in Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield.

If you have any questions, please email opsconsultation@swyt.nhs.uk or call our freephone number, 0800 587 2108, and someone will be in touch to help you.

Thank you to everyone who helped support the consultation and shared information with their local communities.
