Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust provides hospital and community healthcare across south Cheshire and Vale Royal. It manages Leighton Hospital in Crewe, Victoria Infirmary in Northwich and Elmhurst Intermediate Care Centre in Winsford, employing almost 5,500 staff and operating around 540 hospital beds.

Leighton is the main acute site, delivering accident and emergency care, medicine, surgery, maternity, children's services, critical care and diagnostics.
