Please be advised that the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust is a small specialist mental health Trust, and not a hospital.  This is reflected below in our response, where you will see that we do not have comparable numbers of senior posts to larger Acute Trusts.

 

We provide outpatient, and mainly psychological, services. We do not provide acute services, nor inpatient patient services, nor detention facilities, and do not have an A&E department.

 

We only employ a small number of around 30 permanent nurses at any given point, and

do not operate a shift system, working to daytime hours only Monday to Friday.
