We are proud that our Trust colleagues have voted us the best acute Trust to work for in the East Midlands for seven years running in the National NHS Staff Survey, while the Care Quality Commission has rated our Trust as 'outstanding' for care and our King\'s Mill Hospital as the only 'outstanding' NHS-run hospital in the East Midlands.
