Welcome to our Trust...

We are delighted that you have chosen to continue your medical education with us and we welcome you to #TeamSTSFT.

We are now one of the largest NHS Trusts in the North East of England with an annual turnover of over £550million. We have a dedicated team of over 8,000 colleagues who provide acute hospital and community based healthcare services to a population of around 430,000 people living in South Tyneside and Sunderland.

Through our #OneTeamOneTrust approach we work together to ensure that patient care is at the heart of everything we do. We hope that you love it here as much as we do.
