Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust

Thank you for your interest in these exciting opportunities within Homerton Healthcare!

I recently transitioned into the role of CEO, having previously served as Deputy CEO. It is an honour to now lead this incredible Trust as both CEO and Place Based Leader for City and Hackney.

Homerton Healthcare is a fantastic Trust – vibrant, enthusiastic and skilled with a sprinkling of funky and fun. Hackney, being the second most deprived Borough in London, presents unique challenges and Homerton has always been deeply committed to improving the health of its residents. This mission has never been more relevant, given the current economic landscape. As a Trust, we manage both acute and community services and we are proud to be part of one of the best integrated care systems in the country.

I am thrilled about the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the health and wellbeing of our local residents, especially those who have faced barriers to equal access to health and social care or whose health has been affected by socioeconomic factors. I truly believe that collaboration with our communities, patients, people, and our partners is key to ensuring the future success and sustainability of our services. I am deeply passionate about empowering front-line staff and patient partners to drive innovation and sustainable change, and I look forward to working with our teams to build our shared future together.

To achieve our goals both within the Trust and across the broader system, I will need a strong and dynamic team by my side. We have an excellent Executive Team and with the recent turnover of some long-standing members and the refresh of our Trust Strategy, I am eager to appoint two new roles to our executive structure: Chief Deliver Officer and Deputy CEO and a Chief Partnership & Place Officer.

I am seeking candidates who are committed to working closely with communities and health and social care partners as the best way to enhance the health and wellbeing of the populations we serve. Experience in both community or social care services and acute care would be ideal. This is an exciting opportunity and if you’re feeling more enthusiastic after reading this than you were before, I would love to hear from you!

If you’re interested in a confidential conversation, please contact Thomas Patterson, Managing Director or Beth Stickney, Principal Researcher on +44 7703 821 996. I look forward to reading your application.

Incorporating hospital and community health services, teaching and research

We provide general and specialist health services in hospital and in the community for people living in East London. Our Hospital is rated ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission, and our A&E department was the first such department in the country to receive an ‘Outstanding’ rating.

Based in the London Borough of Hackney, we provide general health services at hospital and in the community and specialist care in obstetrics and neonatology, fetal medicine, fertility, HIV and sexual health, asthma and allergies, keyhole and bariatric surgery and neuro-rehabilitation across East London and beyond.

We have earned a reputation for the quality of training offered and are recognised as one of the top recruiters to high quality research studies in the UK with particular interest in neonatology, sexual health and respiratory medicine. We are also recognised as first adapters of methods and systems that promise better and safer patient care.

We serve the 260,000 people of Hackney, an ethnically diverse population with areas of high deprivation and childhood obesity, and take an active and leading role in the City & Hackney system to break down barriers between our services, tackle health inequalities, and improve population health.

Our Strategy

Our Future, Together

Our 2023-2028 organisational strategy aims to build on our strengths, fully develop our scope of working with our partners, and set out how Homerton Healthcare can best contribute to improving health and care over the next five years.

Our vision for 2028 is that everyone in City and Hackney will have access to outstanding care, delivered jointly with local partners and continually improved through innovation.

Our six strategic priorities provide the overarching framework for delivering the strategy. They are:

Improve the health and wellbeing of our communities: addressing prevention, inequality, and population health.
Deliver outstanding, equitable care: providing the best possible care every time, for every patient.
Develop happy, healthy and heard staff: ensuring our people feel valued, and able to work and thrive in the environment we provide.
Strengthen partnerships: expanding collaboration with new and existing partners within our community, providing joined-up services that are accessible to everyone.
Secure our future: ensuring future investment is focused on areas identified to improve care, experience, and environmental sustainability, whilst making the best use of resource already available.
Foster innovation, improvement, and learning: enhancing our learning and improving culture, using continuous improvement and technology to discover, create and innovate.

Our Values

Our values and behaviours shape everything that we do as individuals and as an organisation, they are the foundation of every interaction we have with each other, our patients, their families and carers, our community, and our partners.

We originally developed our core values with our people and patients eight years ago, they formed the framework for how we deliver services and treat one another. We’ve now refreshed our values alongside the development of our strategy, adding a fifth value ‘Inclusive’.

Personal - We will give compassionate care that addresses individual needs and is responsive to our patients, service users, their families and carers, and our people.

Safe - We will do everything we can to make our services as safe as possible and constantly seek to learn and improve.

Respectful - We will treat others as we would expect ourselves or our families to be treated and cared for.

Responsible - We will take responsibility for our actions and any problems that we come across – we will lead by example.

Inclusive - We will respect and value the diversity of our patients and people so everyone can thrive, feel a sense of belonging and can be their authentic self.
