NHS cancer services for North West

cancer diagnosis and treatment

NHS trusts providing cancer services for North West. Each shows the three national cancer waiting-time standards for the whole trust, with its CQC rating.

20 trusts

Cancer waiting-time figures are published for each NHS trust as a whole, not for a single hospital. The percentages shown are for the trust that runs each service. Cancer referral is made by your GP; you cannot self-refer. Small patient numbers move these percentages sharply from one month to the next.

How this data is sourced

Filters and sorting

Patient recommendation, the safety flag and cancer waiting times are published per NHS trust, not per hospital. A mortality review is an NHS trigger for investigation, not proof of poor care. Cancer percentages move sharply on small patient numbers.
