About us

We are a community NHS trust providing community-based health and care services to patients of all ages across Norfolk. We provide a range of services across our eleven-community hospital and inpatient units, GP surgeries, schools, and in patients’ homes.

Serving a population of nearly 900,000 people, NCH&C delivers a wide range of services for people of all ages, including therapies, community nursing, end of life care and specialist nursing, and many more. There’s more about all the services we offer on the Working at NCH&C page of this website.

We believe that looking after people in their local communities is the best way to provide care. Our health and care professionals help people of all ages live independently, stay in their homes longer and leave hospital sooner. This is reflected by our high levels of patient satisfaction. We were also the first community NHS trust in the UK to be rated ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission.
