The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS FoundationTrust delivers acute services at The Hillingdon Hospital, as well as some services at Mount Vernon Hospital.The Trust has a turnover of around £250m and employs over 3,300 staff. We deliver high-quality healthcare to the residents of the LondonBorough of Hillingdon, and increasingly to those living in the surrounding areas of Ealing, Harrow, Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire, giving us a total catchment population of over 350,000. This is a challenging time for the Trust. We face significant operational pressures through increased demand. We are currently rated by CQC as Requires Improvement, we do not meet some of our constitutional standards,have an underlying £23m deficit and we have an extremely poor estate. However, we're not daunted by the scale of the challenge andhave clear plans in place to get a grip on operational performance as well as improve effectiveness and efficiency. We have launched Brunel Partners Academic Centre for Health Sciences, a new centre providing the perfect setting for research and developing new methods of healthcare delivery across allied health, nursing, social care and medicine and we are developing plans to build a new academic health campus that would include a new hospital for us all.
