Acute Trust partnership working in South Yorkshire & Bassetlaw
Our acute Trusts have a long standing reputation for collaboration
The South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw (SYB) Acute Federation is made up of five acute NHS Trusts: Barnsley Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, The Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust, Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust and Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Together we have committed to using our collective expertise and resources to ensure the people of SYB have prompt access to excellent healthcare through:
- Working together to drive the quality of care to be amongst the best in the country
- Taking a proactive approach to reduce health inequalities for the populations we serve
- Collaboratively developing our colleagues and teams so that we have happy staff
- Being a great partner to the rest of the health and care system in SYB
- Supporting each other to achieve all the NHS waiting time standards for local people
- Seeking innovative ways to more effectively use the NHS pound so there is enough resource for the whole system
The Acute Federation is led by the Trust Chairs and Chief Executives, alongside a range of professional partnership groups and is supported by a Managing Director and programme team.
The South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw Acute Federation Clinical Strategy sets out the clinical services framework for the Acute Provider Federation in its role to support acute service development and delivery across South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw. To read the full strategy, please click here.

We want to deliver services that work for young people and their families but some of our current services present us with a gap for young people aged 14 up to 15 years, with a sharp shift from family-focused and multi-disciplinary appointments in child services to the expectation of an autonomous adult capable of self-management in adult services often from the age of 16 years.
The SYB Acute Federation is collectively working together to bridge the gap between paediatrics and adult care through a developmentally appropriate approach to the delivery of healthcare. Read our Statement of Intent here.
