Staff give the Trust a thumbs up in Staff Friends and Family Test

Staff have recommended Guy’s and St Thomas’ as a place to be treated and as a place to work in the latest Staff Friends and Family Test.

A total of 1,276 staff completed the last Test, which was carried out in June. The national results were published today, Thursday 24 August, by NHS England.

The Staff Friends and Family Test is an important snapshot of how our staff feel about working here and the services the Trust provides."
