'Before You Rank' is now part of 'Ward on the Street': Our NHS Trust and Health Board Intelligence Database is now in the same place as anonymous NHS staff reviews

Dr Dev Gakhar

Our NHS Trust and Health Board Intelligence Database, which you might know as Before You Rank, is now part of Ward on the Street for the sake of convenience. So when you're choosing where to work, you can see a trust's systems, like its EPR and whether notes are still on paper, right beside the reviews of its hospitals.

What's on Ward on the Street

Ward on the Street is where you find out what a job is actually like before you take it. For every hospital, you can:

  • Read anonymous reviews of each department from the NHS staff who worked there
  • See how it did in the GMC's national training survey and the NHS Staff Survey
  • Check the locum rates doctors were paid there, with a free sign-in
  • Find out where to park, where we know it

There's an A to Z of every hospital and a leaderboard. And if you're looking at a specialty, its own page brings together its reviews from every hospital, with what it takes to get into it.

Ward on the Street's reviews and the GMC survey are built into Spec Select too, so you can see them beside what applying to each specialty involves.

And now every trust's systems too

Compare hospital trusts has every NHS trust and health board side by side, just like the Intelligence Database did. For each one you can see:

  • Its electronic patient record (EPR) system
  • Whether notes and prescribing are digital or on paper
  • Which system its emergency department uses
  • How well its systems connect
  • Where it sits in NHS England's league table
  • Its hospitals on Ward on the Street, with their scores

You can type in any trust or hospital, or narrow it down with the filters. And if you sign in, you can save trusts and compare up to 3 side by side.

If you used it before

Nothing's been lost. Everything the community has added is still there, and you can still send an update if something at a trust has changed. If you saved trusts, sign in and they'll be in your shortlist. And the old Before You Rank address now takes you straight to the new page.
