About us
Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust
(BHFT) was formed in April 2001 and successfully became licensed as a
Foundation Trust in May 2007. In April 2011 the community services
which were previously the provider arms of NHS Berkshire East and NHS Berkshire
West PCTs merged with the Trust.
The main
centres of population are Reading in the West of the County and Slough in the
East. Within Berkshire there are also
major populations at Newbury, Wokingham in the West and Bracknell, Maidenhead,
Windsor and Ascot in the East, as well and many significant urban developments
in smaller towns forming essentially a single conurbation along the M4
Corridor.
Berkshire
is characterised by concentrations of population and large rural areas. It includes some of the most affluent and
least deprived communities in the country, but also has pockets of markedly
deprived wards. The Trust is part of two Integrated
Care Systems (Frimley ICS and Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire & Berkshire West
ICS) and partners with six local unitary authorities.
The trust has an outstanding CQC
rating.
BHFT employs over 4000
people working from more than
100
sites.
At Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust,
our mission is to maximise independence and quality of life. Our vision is to
be the best place to give care, the best place to get care.
