Employer Description:
The Trust works from more than 70 sites across Cumbria, Northumberland, Newcastle, North Tyneside, Gateshead, South Tyneside and Sunderland. We also run a number of regional and national specialist services. Along with partners, we deliver support to people in their own homes, and from community and hospital-based premises. We have more than 8,000 people working for us and a budget of over £500 million. The services we provide are divided into four sections, which are organised geographically into “locality care groups”. These are known as North, Central, South and Cumbria. Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust was formed in 2019 when the mental health and learning disability services in North Cumbria were transferred to Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust. Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust was created back in 2006. This was through the merger of three different NHS trusts: Newcastle, North Tyneside and Northumberland Mental Health NHS Trust; South of Tyne and Wearside Mental Health NHS Trust; and Northgate and Prudhoe NHS Trust. Since then, there have been some dramatic changes that have helped shape how we care and support the people we serve. For instance, we have been able to provide some state-of-the-art facilities, which have dramatically improved inpatient services. Between 2006 and 2016, we opened eight new buildings, ranging from a specialist dementia centre to a large 122-bed hospital.
