What is an NHS Trust?

An NHS Trust is an organisational unit of the National Health Service that typically operates multiple hospitals, community clinics, and specialist services under one legal entity. All clinical negligence claims and payment figures on this page relate to the trust as a whole, not to any individual hospital or site.
