The Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust was established in April 2002 and is one of the largest in the country. The Trust serves the communities of North Manchester, Bury, Rochdale and Oldham, along with the surrounding towns and villages. This area is collectively known as the North-East sector of Greater Manchester and has a population of around 800,000.
The Trust provides Accident and Emergency; Diagnostics; Medicine; Surgery; Specialist Services (HIV / AIDS) and Women and Children's services and operates from six sites:
Fairfield General Hospital, Bury
North Manchester General Hospital
The Royal Oldham Hospital
Rochdale Infirmary
Birch Hill Hospital, Rochdale
Ancoats Walk-In Centre (for minor illness or minor injury)
Our mission statement is:
"to provide the very best care, for each patient, on every occasion"
After a discussion programme involving staff from all of our divisions, the Trust adopted the following values:
- Patient care is at the centre of everything we do. We work together to deliver a high quality service to provide the best possible outcome for our patients.
- Accountability, honesty and integrity are keys to our success both individually and across the Trust.
- Treating everyone with respect and promoting good working relationships will support individuals in reaching their full potential.
