Our goal is to make Leeds Teaching Hospitals the best place to work.
Providing the very best patient-centred care is at the heart of everything we do and our people are integral to this.
We operate a clinically-led structure, which means that doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals make the decisions on how we run our hospitals.
Our Clinical Service Units (CSUs) deliver our services and they are led by a triumvirate team, including Clinical Director, Heads of Nursing or Profession and General Manager. Each CSU has their own clinical focus and is responsible for delivering the highest standards of quality, safety and financial performance for their service.
Running our Trust is very much a team effort. As well as nursing, medical and scientific roles, our dedicated Estates and Facilities teams provide support services as do our corporate functions such as Finance, Informatics, Human Resources and Patient Administration. We all work in partnership to deliver the best possible services for our patients.
Our people work in a variety of roles across the Trust and each one of them plays a role in making our hospitals the best they can be.
We know that a good working environment for our people means better care for our patients so we work hard to ensure that everybody has the chance to make their voice heard. We are one of very few Trusts to open up our NHS Staff Survey to every member of staff and we have one of the highest appraisal rates in the country. This means we have a reliable way to gauge staff opinion and can confidently build on their feedback to make LTHT an even better place to work.
