East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust: Investing in Rehabilitation and Home First services to deliver ‘The Art of the Possible’  

At East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust (ESHT), we’re not just imagining a better future for healthcare—we’re building it. 

We are committed to improving outcomes for patients, and driven by a quality improvement approach we’re rethinking what’s possible for patient care through a bold and forward-looking plan. We are investing in our Acute Therapy, Urgent Community Response, and Virtual Ward services. 

As part of our "Art of the Possible" vision, we’re delivering rehabilitation and care that is: 

  • Closer to home 

  • Faster to access 

  • Seamlessly coordinated 

  • Built around our patients 

 

Our Home First and Virtual Ward models are at the heart of this transformation—enabling people to recover in their own homes with hospital-level support, surrounded by comfort, dignity, and expert care. 

 

This means: 

  • Faster recovery and fewer hospital admissions 

  • Truly personalised care, wherever it’s needed 

  • Greater independence and better outcomes for our communities 

But innovation doesn’t happen without passionate people. That’s why we’re investing not just in services—but in you. 

We’re recruiting now for talented individuals to join our expanding teams in both acute and community settings.
