Our partners

The Partnership is one of 42 Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) which cover England to meet health and care needs across an area, coordinate services and plan in a way that improves population health and reduces inequalities between different groups.

We work across a geographical area of more than 1.08 million hectares (equivalent to over 2 million football pitches) and serve a population of 1.7 million people, all with different health and care needs.

Our area includes the cities of Hull and York and the large rural areas across East Yorkshire, North Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire.

Our aims for the 1.7 million people of Humber and North Yorkshire are:

• Narrowing the gap in life expectancy by 2030.
• Increasing healthy life expectancy by five years by 2035.

To achieve these aims, our Integrated Care Partnership has agreed three overarching ambitions:

• Radically improving children's wellbeing, health and care.
• Enabling wellbeing, health and care equity.
• Transforming people’s health and care experiences and outcomes.

The Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) is responsible for planning and overseeing how NHS money is spent to support our 1.7 million residents.

Our role is to make sure health services work well and are of high quality. We also work to join up health and care services, improve health and wellbeing of local people and reduce health inequalities across our area.

The ICB is responsible for planning and overseeing most of the health services used by people who live in Humber and North Yorkshire. We hold the budgets for those NHS services and we make sure that care is high quality and that people get access to the services they need. This includes essential services such as:

• emergency and urgent care
• GP services
• most dental services
• optometrist (optician) services
• community nursing
• mental health support
• rehabilitative care
• most planned hospital care
• continuing healthcare, which is for adults and children with long-term complex physical or mental health needs.

Our teams are here for you twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. We provide the communities of northern Lincolnshire and Goole with excellent standards of care, compassion and respect.

We have three hospital sites, with a total of approximately 750 beds, offering a mix of acute and community services.

• Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital, Grimsby
• Scunthorpe General Hospital
• Goole District Hospital

Together they serve a local population of more than 450,000 people and provide inpatient, day care and outpatient services.

We are now part of NHS Humber Health Partnership – the Group name for Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust.

Our Group values, chosen by staff, are: Compassion, honesty, respect and teamwork.
