WELCOME to “Trust / Health Service Organisation” NHS Isle of Wight provides Acute Care, Mental Health, Ambulance and Community Services that would otherwise be provided by lots of different organisations on the mainland. This is because living on an island makes travelling elsewhere in the UK for treatment more difficult and, with quite a small population, we can provide care more cost effectively as a single organisation. NHS Isle of Wight employs approximately 3,000 staff, is committed to personal development and has strong links with Southampton, Portsmouth and Bournemouth Universities. In addition to the central hospital site of St Mary's, Newport, there are a variety of health clinics and community bases across the Island from which many of the Trust's services are delivered.
