Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is an integrated provider of hospital, community and primary care, centred on the Great Western Hospital in Swindon. More than 5,500 staff support over 2.5 million patient contacts each year, with services designed to care for people at home, in local settings and in hospital.
The Great Western Hospital provides urgent and emergency treatment alongside medical, surgical, maternity, children's and diagnostic care. Community teams deliver nursing, therapies and support that help people remain independent or recover outside hospital, while the Trust's primary care services connect general practice with wider pathways. Its integrated structure supports earlier intervention and smoother movement between home, community care and specialist hospital treatment.
