What our staff think about working here

The NHS Staff Survey is carried out annually across England to capture staff views of their experience at work and of NHS services.

The most recent national staff survey was undertaken in autumn 2016 and completed by a random sample of more than 5,100 Trust staff.

How are we doing?

The results of the 2016 NHS Staff Survey show that 89% of staff at Guy’s and St Thomas’ feel "satisfied with the quality of work and patient care that they are able to deliver". This is among the best scores for combined acute and community hospital trusts in England and compares to a national average of 69%.

The survey results also show we are above average in 22 of the 33 key findings in the survey.

In particular, we scored well for:

• staff recommending the Trust as a place to work – 79% compared to the national average of 59%. This is the highest score for any trust in England
• staff engagement – we received a score of 4.03 (on a scale of 1-5) compared to the national average of 3.80. This is the highest score for any trust in England.
