St George's Healthcare NHS Trust

St George's University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, formerly called St George’s Healthcare NHS Trust, is based in Tooting in the London Borough of Wandsworth, and serves a population of 1.3 million across southwest London. A large number of services, such as cardiothoracic medicine and surgery, neurosciences and renal transplantation, also cover significant populations from Surrey and Sussex, totalling about 3.5 million people.

The trust employs around 7,500 staff in a range of occupations and professions working together to provide healthcare services for patients.

On 1 October 2010 St George’s Healthcare integrated with Community Services Wandsworth, formerly the provider arm of NHS Wandsworth. This integration saw Community Services Wandsworth become the Community Services Wandsworth division of St George’s Healthcare NHS Trust, with the 1,200 members of staff becoming employees of St George’s Healthcare under TUPE.

St George’s Healthcare incorporates St George’s Hospital in Tooting and a full range of community services provided at Queen Mary’s Hospital in Roehampton, St John’s Therapy Centre in Battersea, HMP Wandsworth, health centres and clinics, GP surgeries, schools and in people’s homes throughout Wandsworth.

St George’s Hospital is one of the UK's largest teaching hospitals. It shares its main hospital site in Tooting, England with the renowned St George's, University of London which trains NHS staff and carries out advanced medical research.
