East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust is one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals serving a local population of around 720,500 people.
We also provide many health services from other NHS facilities across East Kent including child and adolescent mental health services, and renal services in Medway and Maidstone.
Our motto is 'putting patients first' and everything we do is guided by our vision and values.
We have a national and international reputation for delivering high quality specialist care, particularly in cancer, kidney disease, stroke and vascular
services.
As a teaching Trust we play a vital role in the education and training of doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals, working closely with local universities and Kings College University in London.
