The University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust  runs Royal Stoke University Hospital, formerly run by the University Hospital of North Staffordshire NHS Trust and the County Hospital (formerly Stafford Hospital).

The trust operates on three sites in Stoke and one in Stafford. Most departments in Stoke are on the Royal Stoke University Hospital site with some residual functions on the old Royal Infirmary site. A separate central outpatients department is in Hartshill between the two hospital sites.

£150m will be spent at Stafford, doubling the size of the casualty department, expanding outpatient facilities, refurbishing wards and opening a new theatre. Stafford will get a new MRI scanner and possibly a new eye surgery unit.

The board is one of the first organisations in the UK to make wifi available in its hospitals, on the basis that enables patients to stay in touch with their family and friends, and improves the way it interacts with patients.

The trust provides a full range of general acute hospital services for approximately 700,000 people living in and around Staffordshire and beyond. The Trust also provides specialised services, such as Trauma, for three million people in a wider area, including neighbouring counties and North Wales.

All the hospitals are easily accessible by car, bike or public transport. For more information on how to get to the hospitals, please visit: www.uhnm.nhs.uk/getting-here/public-transport/

The trust is also recognised for it's particular expertise in trauma, respiratory conditions, spinal surgery, upper gastro-intestinal surgery, complex orthopaedic surgery, laparoscopic surgery and the management of liver conditions.
