Description

West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA) as the contracting authority for West Yorkshire Police (WYP) wish to invite Suppliers for the provision of healthcare and forensic services in custody. The Supplier is required to deliver a high quality and cost effective service, which meets the healthcare requirements of detainees and assists with the recovery of forensic evidence, whilst working to reduce re-offending. The Supplier must deliver a 24/7/365 embedded service in all Force custody suites, at; Elland Rd (Leeds DHQ) Stainbeck (Leeds) Trafalgar House (Bradford) Halifax (Calderdale) Dewsbury (Kirklees) (New station opening 2026) Havertop (Wakefield DHQ) There is also an Overspill Suite at Pudsey (Leeds) which is occasionally used. Plus the North East Counter Terrorism Unit is based in West Yorkshire. The Force requires one HCP to be embedded at each of the six custody suites. One additional HCP is required as peripatetic cover, referred to locally as resilience cover, to work across all custody suites providing additional assistance and support as required by fluctuations in demand for service. The peripatetic HCP will predominantly be based at Trafalgar House Bradford custody suite when not required to provide cover/assistance at any of the other custody suites. The service will be supported by an online booking system for the request of healthcare services, triaging & prioritising the order of calls and allocation of assessments to the correct HCP.
