About us

We are proud of our improvements over the last five years at Sherwood Forest Hospitals, and we recognise we can improve further. We know good quality healthcare can only be delivered by focussing on the experience of people, be it patients and the public or the colleagues you work with. Our improvements have been achieved by two central commitments to people:

• We expect all patients to receive the same standard of care we would want our friends and family to have and :
• We expect all colleagues to be treated with the same values we believe are important; support, kindness and respect.

We want to work with partners, we want to move beyond the boundaries of our hospitals and we want to help our local population become healthier.

Since 2019 we have been working to deliver healthier communities and outstanding care for all, and working with Primary Care Networks and partners in our Mid- Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Provider and our Integrated Care System.
