The Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust has once again been ranked among the best performing trusts in the country. The Trust has moved up to 4th place in the latest ranking of England’s Mental Health and Community Trusts.
The NHS Oversight Framework ranks trusts across England against a comprehensive set of performance measures designed to assess how effectively organisations are delivering care and services. In updated figures, Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust maintained its place within Segment 1, the highest-performing category within the framework, as well as climbing from its previous position of 7th to 4th place nationally among non-acute NHS trusts.
The Trust provides services across a large geographical area, including Hull, the East Riding, Whitby, Scarborough and Ryedale, as well as parts of North and North East Lincolnshire. In addition to placing it among the best in the country, the trust’s 4th place ranking makes it the highest-ranked trust in the Humber and North Yorkshire ICB area.
The league tables were introduced by the Labour Government in a bid to raise standards. Upon announcing the tables, the then-Health Secretary, Wes Streeting, said they, “will identify where urgent support is needed and allow high-performing areas to share best practices with others, taking the best of the NHS to the rest of the NHS.” After resigning from his cabinet role last month, Mr Streeting has been replaced by James Murray as Health Secretary.

Under the framework, trusts are grouped into performance segments, with Segment 1 reserved for organisations demonstrating the strongest overall performance. Non-acute trusts are assessed against up to 30 metrics across six key domains, with an overall score determining their national ranking.
The measures include access to services, patient experiences, patient safety, and staff wellbeing. The Trust says achieving fourth place at the end of the first year of the NHS National Oversight Framework highlights a continued focus on delivering high-quality care and achieving positive outcomes for patients, service users, and local communities.
