West Yorkshire all age Health Needs Assessment for Palliative and End of Life Care focused on Health Inequalities

Tender description

This is a request for quotation exercise. A key priority from the West Yorkshire PEoLC plan is to complete an all-age HNA focusing on health inequalities. The core purpose of the HNA is to guide the future development of equitable, culturally safe PEoLC services across the WYHCP footprint. The HNA will include feedback from the experiences of adults, children and young people and their families and carers led by Healthwatch. Outcomes from the HNA will identify what should be prioritised to improve outcomes for people experiencing PEoLC. The HNA will also ensure WYHCP is compliant with PEoLC statutory guidance, in particular the duty to: • action an Ambitions for Palliative and End of Life Care self-assessment, to identify progress and gaps against the six Ambitions commitments (involving people with lived experience) • complete an Equalities and Health inequalities impact assessment and action plan focused on PEoLC • specify clearly what needs to be in place to deliver high quality end of life care across West Yorkshire • ensure the needs of our local population are met through a system wide approach • ensure palliative and end of life care services applies to people of all ages • ensure that PEoLC service specifications are aligned to the national PEoLC technical specialist service specification for adults and children.
