The Initial Response Service (IRS) was originally established in the organisation in 2021 commencing in the Pennine network. Since then the new service has been rolled out across all 4 localities. There have been some excellent examples of success and improving access for our patients. In order to further enhance the improvements within IRS we are looking for a call handler manager to lead on this work alongside the IRS improvement lead.
