The Emergency Department (ED) at Newham University Hospital (NUH) in East London sees over 90,000 emergency patients every year and an average of 500 patients per day. It is a Trauma Unit with strong links to the Major Trauma Centre at the Royal London Hospital, which is also part of Barts Health. NUH provides all the services expected of a district general hospital including acute medicine, specialist medicine, critical care, child health, women’s health, surgery, long-term care, and diagnostics. There is also a dedicated Stroke Unit which specialises in rehabilitation of patients initially cared for on the Hyper Acute Stroke Unit (HASU) at the Royal London Hospital.

Newham is the largest borough within the Trust’s catchment area. The local population is very young and diverse, with an exciting and varied case-mix, often with high acuity. There is a separate Paediatric Emergency Department and Urgent Care Centre.

Barts Health is one of the largest NHS trusts in the country and a leading healthcare provider. The group is entering an exciting new era on our improvement journey to become an outstanding organisation with a world-class clinical reputation.

We aim to deliver high standards of harm-free care and ensure patients receive care in the right place at the right time.
