We employ 3,00 people to deliver services from a number of community bases across the whole of Derbyshire and from inpatient units in Derby and Chesterfield.
Across the county and city we serve a combined population of approximately one million people.
Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust was established on 1 February 2011 when Monitor, the independent regulator of health services in England (later called NHS Improvement, which is now part of NHS England), authorised Derbyshire Mental Health Services NHS Trust to become a Foundation Trust. The organisation's name was changed to Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.
We have a clear vision for the Trust, underpinned by objectives that serve as the basis for decision making and forward planning. Our vision and objectives guide us in how we balance the interests of patients, the local community and other stakeholders.
