About Us
Yorkshire Health Solutions has developed a high-quality community ultrasound service, performed in GP surgeries throughout Yorkshire and Manchester. The service is provided by utilising experienced UK-trained ultrasonographers, appointments are based on self-referral, e-referral, and GP referral. The service is underpinned by a robust clinical governance program putting patient safety, clinical effectiveness, and patient experience at the centre of our service. Ultrasound examinations will be continuously audited to ensure excellence both in terms of imaging and reporting.
Yorkshire Health Solutions believes that patients should get the right test at the right time in a location most suited to their clinical needs. This is why we have used our expertise to institute a community ultrasound service for NHS patients in Yorkshire and Greater Manchester regions. Appointments are referred through the Electronic Referral System (ERS) from the General Practitioner.
Results are delivered rapidly to your doctor enabling prompt treatment or onward referral to be arranged. Images and reports are provided if you require further medical care in a hospital or with another organisation so further care is not delayed. Reports will be returned by secure e-mail within 72 hours to the referring practice for incorporation into patient records. If onward referral is required to secondary care, the images and report can be transferred via the image exchange portal (IEP).
YHS is working with multiple primary care practitioners to provide a trusted community ultrasound service. Our partnership will provide a high-quality ultrasound service closer to patients’ homes, performed by senior sonographers.
