Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust

Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust provides acute hospital services for people who live in Gateshead and some specialist services for people from the wider region. The Trust was founded on 5 January 2005 under the Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Act 2003.  

As an NHS Foundation Trust, local people have a greater say in the running and delivery of health services. At the end of March 2007, 9,000 people had joined as members and through the Council of Governors local people have a direct input into shaping the Trust’s future.

Details can be found at> the Health Care Commission website.

The Trust’s mission statement, developed by listening to staff is:

“Working together to provide the best health services and care for local people”
