From award-winning hospitals and leisure facilities to flagship community programmes - we'll do whatever it takes to look after the UK's wellbeing.

It starts with passion and commitment to quality. It starts with you.

The NEPR programme will change the way we work across Nuffield Health and put in place a new technology-enabled operating model for our hospitals, replacing many of the manual and paper/location-reliant processes with an integrated and flexible patient-centric approach, supported by internet-enabled technology solutions.
