Industrial action by senior and junior doctors will have a significant impact on our services from Tuesday 19 to Saturday 23 September, with doctors taking coordinated strike action for the first time in the history of the NHS.

Five student radiographers from our Trust, Barts Health, and Homerton Healthcare have graduated as the first cohort from the North East London Imaging Academy after nine months of training.

We are joining forces with the Barts Health group to help patients who would otherwise struggle to get to and from appointments because of a medical condition or mobility issue.

We’re pleased the results of the national CQC adult inpatient survey are beginning to reflect the improvements our teams have been making.

Members of staff who work in our Pathology department are taking industrial action on Wednesday 13 and Thursday 14 September. They belong to the Unite union and they are going on strike because of their concerns about staffing levels. Their action will affect samples that we test in our labs, including blood samples.

We're delighted to announce we're introducing an electronic patient record (EPR) that will be fully operational in two years’ time. We’re one of the last trusts in London to move to an EPR and away from our unhealthy reliance on paper. We generate 25 million pieces of A4 a year – laid end to end, they’d stretch to New York.

From next week, you can access your health record online through a portal called Patients Know Best (PKB). 

Join us in the Education Centre (ground floor) at Queen's Hospital on Saturday 23 Septmeber between 2pm and 4pm to get some tips from two of our Consultant Neurologists on how to manage your migranes better.

After the success last time, we're holding another 'Run with your Doctor' event

Lyn Clark, a health play specialist at our Trust, is leaving today (Tuesday 30 August) after working with us for over 47 years!
