Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust

In 2005 the hospital received the maximum three star rating from the Healthcare Commission in recognition of the quality of its services,[2] and was granted Foundation Trust status on 1 February 2008.

In July 2013 The Guardian newspaper disclosed the existence of two previously unpublished critical reviews commissioned by the hospital which revealed concerns about chronic under-staffing and sub-standard care.

[3] Christine Green, the chief executive, and Dr Tariq Mahmood, the hospital's medical director, both resigned as a result of the disclosure.

She was awarded an OBE in the 2020 New Year's Honours list in recognition for bringing the Trust out of special measures to be rated 'Good' by the CQC in 2017 and 2019.

"[8] The trust was one of the beneficiaries of Boris Johnson's announcement of capital funding for the NHS in August 2019, with an allocation of £16.3 million for emergency and urgent care facilities at Tameside General Hospital.
