About the Trust
Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin (STW) is split into two Places – Shropshire (population of 330,000) and Telford & Wrekin (population of 190,000). Shropshire Place has been successful in the first wave of bids to the National Neighbourhood Healthcare Implementation Programme (NNHIP); this role will be key in supporting this work across the system. The Trust also delivers 0‑19 Public Health services in Dudley (population of 332,000) and whilst currently not playing a key part in the development of Integrated Neighbourhood Teams, there is a desire to be more fully involved. Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust provides community‑based health services for adults and children in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, and some services in surrounding areas too. These range from district nursing, health visiting and running four community hospitals through to providing very specialist community care through talented and dedicated staff. Patients, carers and the public play a vital role in helping us to develop and improve our services and we are constantly looking for ways to work with local communities, patients and the public to innovate and improve. Have a look at the Have Your Say section of our website to find out how you can feed back your experiences and help us to continually improve. Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust is an exciting place to work. It offers a wide range of employment opportunities for many people. Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust positively encourages applications from all areas of the community, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation or religious beliefs. We are committed to ensuring people who work for the community trust have a good working life – and a good work life/home life balance.
