Established on 1 April 2000, the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust manages three hospitals: Hertford County in Hertford, the Lister in Stevenage and the Queen Elizabeth II in Welwyn Garden City. From April 2005, the Trust also took on management responsibility for the Mount Vernon Cancer Centre in Northwood, North-west London. The Mount Vernon service will form the heart of Hertfordshire's first ever cancer centre, which is being developed as part of the new hospital in Hatfield that will be ready by 2012.
Between them, the Lister and Queen Elizabeth II (QEII) hospitals provide a wide range of major acute in-patient services, including accident and emergency and maternity. Along with Hertford County hospital, they provide care to people on an outpatient basis. The Mount Vernon Cancer Centre provides a specialist tertiary cancer treatment service, with referrals coming from hospitals such as the Lister and QEII.
The Trust's hospitals are mainly situated in the heart of south east England, being found within a triangle bordered by Luton and Bedford to the north west, Cambridge to north east and London to the south. Mount Vernon is situated in Northwood, which is in North-west London, quite close to Watford.
The Trust's three hospitals, serving some 500,000 people; Mount Vernon's catchment area, given its specialist nature, serves some two million people - including the whole of Hertfordshire. Today over 5,000 staff for the Trust, which has an annual budget of some £225 million and has approximately 900 inpatient beds.
Every year, around half a million people - both those admitted for care and those who come along to outpatient departments - use the services provided through the Trust's hospitals.
