The trust established Universal Health Ltd a joint venture with Lincolnshire and District Medical Services in 2015. It took over the running of the Burton Road Surgery in Lincoln in June 2015.[1]

It runs Long Leys Court and the Peter Hodgkinson Centre in Lincoln. Long Leys Court cares for 16 people with a learning disability, who often have complex needs. It was closed temporarily in 2015 while police investigated three serious incidents.[2][3]

It was named by the Health Service Journal as one of the top hundred NHS trusts to work for in 2015. At that time it had 1886 full-time equivalent staff and a sickness absence rate of 4.6%. 62% of staff recommend it as a place for treatment and 56% recommended it as a place to work.[4]

The trust deployed a new Servelec RiO electronic patient record system in September 2018 with 202,080 patient records.[5]
