Welcome by Chief Executive

Welcome to Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. I hope you find your placements at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust both rewarding and enjoyable.

We employ 5,000 amazing people who every day work together to provide the best possible healthcare to our patients, those that are vulnerable and in need of our help.

Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust was created in January 2012 from two smaller trusts. This is a time of new and interesting developments and challenges. Our Foundation Trust is a busy and successful one, creating an organisation focused on delivering high quality patient centered care.

I would like to emphasise that everyone counts in our future, even if they are here for a very short period of time. I would encourage everyone to feel able to make suggestions for improvement. That is how we will ensure we are always getting better.

The Trust is committed to investing in student education & development, as any student is a potential future employee of the Foundation Trust. We hope that during your time here, you will gain knowledge and experience in your chosen field, whilst contributing to the continuing success of this Trust.

I hope that this induction pack will provide you with the background Information to assist you as you settle in to your placement here at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
