Who We Are
Stoke-on-Trent Community Health Service provides a wide range of diverse health services in the local community.
We employ in the region of 1500 staff ranging from District Nurses, Community Matrons, Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Podiatrist, Dentists and many more specialists.
Currently we are an operating division, sometimes called the Provider Arm function of the Primary Care Trust (PCT). Stoke-on-Trent Community Health Service is working towards becoming an independent NHS provider service and separate from the Commissioning Arm (purchaser of services) of Stoke-on-Trent Primary Care Trust.
In some areas of care we work closely with Local Authorities and Voluntary organisations to ensure the demands of patients are met effectively.
We operate from two community hospitals, the Haywood Hospital and Longton Cottage Hospital, and from Health Centres across Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire.
Our Aim
To deliver high quality, safe services and promote the health and well-being of everyone we serve.
Our Vision
To offer hospital and community services that people value and positively choose to receive.
Our values are:
- People are at the centre of everything we do
- We take pride in the services that we provide and in delivering a high standard of care
- We enable people to make choices about their care by providing understandable high quality information
- We treat each other and people who receive our services with dignity and respect
- We all act with responsibility for what we do
We hope this website will provide residents with the range of services and treatments Stoke-on-Trent Community Health Service is responsible for.
