Visitors to both Queen’s and King George hospitals are being strongly encouraged to take a Covid-19 rapid lateral flow test before visiting their loved ones, in order to help keep them safe and our staff safe. Find out more about our visitor restrictions and how you can obtain tests.

With a dedicated workforce of more than 7,500 staff and volunteers we provide care for a population of about 750,000 across Barking and Dagenham, Havering and Redbridge. We also provide some healthcare services to people in south west Essex and specialist neurosciences services to the whole of the county. This makes us one of the larger acute trusts in the country. Our two hospitals cover all major specialties and include two of the busiest emergency departments in London. Read more about us.
