We were one of the first 10 NHS Foundation Trusts in the country and are an associate teaching hospital. Providing an extensive range of acute medical services at Basildon University Hospital and Orsett Hospital, we primarily serve the 310,000 population of Basildon and Thurrock in South West Essex, plus some residents of the neighbouring districts of Brentwood (for whom we are the main provider of cardiology services) and Castle Point. More than £60 million has been invested in the last few years expanding and modernising Basildon University Hospital.
