Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust

Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust is an integrated care trust which provides hospital and community health services for Hackney, the City and surrounding communities. The Trust provides a full range of adult, older people's and children's services across a range of acute and community specialties. We run acute services from a single site: Homerton University Hospital, which has 400 beds spread across 11 adult inpatient wards, an intensive care unit, and maternity, paediatric and neonatal wards. There are three-day surgery theatres and six main operating theatres and the types of surgery performed include general surgery, trauma, orthopaedics, gynaecology, maxillofacial, urology and ear nose and throat (ENT). Community services operate from over 60 partner sites in Hackney and the City of London, and include sexual health, Locomotor rehabilitation services, school nursing and diabetes eye screening. The Trust also provides continuing health care at the Mary Seacole Nursing Home in Hoxton, east London. A range of specialist care is offered in obstetrics and neonatology, foetal medicine, fertility, HIV and sexual health, asthma and allergies, bariatric surgery and neurorehabilitation across east London and beyond.
