What We Do

Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

 

Our Services

The Hepatitis C service at Bradford Teaching Hospitals was established in 2005. The service has expanded and now has four Clinical Nurse Specialists, a Hepatology Pharmacist and two Consultant Hepatologists.

Our aim is to provide Hepatitis C treatment for the population of Bradford to optimise treatment success through the most effective path possible from diagnosis to cure.

Our outreach service within Bradford Drug and Alcohol services was set up in 2009, and we continue to work in close collaboration with Drug and Alcohol Service providers to encourage micro elimination of Hepatitis C. We also provide additional outreach services within a Social Enterprise GP practice in Bradford City Centre that focuses on meeting the needs of vulnerable patients. The Clinical Nurse Specialists provide support for patients under the care of Mental Health Services in Bradford, through their Hepatitis C treatment in both in-patient and Dual Diagnosis Clinic settings.

Referrals are received from Primary Care, providers of Drug and Alcohol, Sexual Health and Mental Health Services.
