Somerset NHS Foundation Trust is a comprehensive healthcare organization that runs acute hospitals, community services, mental health and learning disability services, and a quarter of Somerset's GP practices. Our trust is the result of two mergers, bringing together various healthcare services under one umbrella. With two acute hospitals, Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton and Yeovil Hospital in Yeovil, we provide a broad range of services to our community.

Our mission is to improve the health and wellbeing of our population, enabling individuals to live socially connected, healthy, and independent lives. We prioritize early intervention and prevention of avoidable illnesses while offering the best care and support to both children and adults. Safety, sustainability, effectiveness, and person-centered care are at the core of our services.

We believe in reducing inequalities, valuing all individuals equally and targeting our resources and attention where they are most needed, regardless of physical or mental health needs. Additionally, we strive to respond well to complex needs by providing personalized and coordinated support. As an integral part of the Somerset Integrated Care Board, we collaborate with NHS, social care, and voluntary sector partners to plan and deliver services.

Our goal is to bring care closer to home, strengthen community support, and support individuals with complex needs. In addition to our comprehensive patient services, we are committed to training the next generation of healthcare professionals, ensuring a skilled workforce for the future. At Somerset NHS Foundation Trust, we are dedicated to providing high-quality, accessible healthcare for the people of Somerset and beyond
