East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust
Hospitals and Health Care
We are an acute hospital and community NHS Trust providing NHS services for people living in East Sussex.
About us
We provide safe, compassionate and high quality hospital and community care to over half a million people living in East Sussex and those who visit our local area. We are one of the largest organisations in East Sussex with an annual income of £650 million and we are the only integrated provider of acute and community care in Sussex. Our extensive health services are provided by over 8,000 dedicated members of staff working from two acute hospitals in Hastings and Eastbourne, three community hospitals in Bexhill, Rye and Uckfield, over 100 community sites across East Sussex, and in people’s own homes. In 2020 the Care Quality Commission (CQC) rated us as ‘Good’ overall, and ‘Outstanding’ for being Caring and Effective. Conquest Hospital and our Community Services were rated ‘Outstanding’ and Eastbourne DGH was rated ‘Good’. Our two acute hospitals have emergency departments and provide 24 hour a day care, offering a comprehensive range of surgical, medical, outpatient and maternity services, supported by a full range of diagnostic and therapy services. Our centre for trauma services and obstetrics is at Conquest Hospital, while our centre for urology and stroke services is at Eastbourne DGH. At Bexhill Hospital we offer a range of outpatient, day surgery, rehabilitation and intermediate care services. At Rye, Winchelsea and District Memorial Hospital we offer outpatients, rehabilitation and intermediate services. At Uckfield Community Hospital we provide day surgery and outpatient care. In the community, we deliver services that focus on people with long term conditions living well outside hospital, through our integrated locality teams working with district and community nursing teams. Community members of staff also provide care to patients in their homes and from a number of clinics, health centres and GP surgeries. We are part of the Sussex Health and Care Integrated Care System (ICS), which is made up of health and care organisations across Sussex.

The Targeted Lung Health Check programme in Hastings is helping to detect lung cancer early when it is more treatable - and helping to save the lives of people who may not have realised they are ill. Our colleagues Dr Neel Sharma and nurse Amarachi Ofoh talk to BBC South East about the programme, the difference that it makes and how getting your scan could help save your life. https://lnkd.in/ewC4etxd
