Royal Free Hospital

About

Across our three London hospitals, our vision is clear: to deliver world class expertise and local care. We represent the NHS at its best.

Story

The Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust runs three hospitals in London:

• Barnet Hospital
• Chase Farm Hospital
• Royal Free Hospital

In the 21st century we continue to lead improvements in healthcare, from targeted cancer therapies to new kinds of surgery. We offer an exceptionally wide range of local and specialist services, including cancer, plastic surgery, vascular surgery, blood disorders and infectious diseases and are proud to have some of the best clinical outcomes in the country.

In addition to our three main sites, the trust includes a network of clinics provided at other trusts’ hospitals and community sites. Our local catchment area comprises most of the areas covered by Barnet, Camden, Islington and Haringey primary care trusts (PCTs) together with west Enfield and east Brent.

Our aim is to be in the top 10% of English hospitals for clinical quality, customer satisfaction, staff satisfaction and financial performance. We want to give patients the best possible care in a safe, clean and welcoming environment.

Mission

Our mission is to be world class in terms of healthcare treatment, clinical research and teaching excellence. We aim to deliver and develop leading local healthcare in all three of our hospitals, to improve lives and help people thrive.
