The NHS has for the first time published league tables ranking every trust in England.

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has said each trust will be ranked quarterly on the standards of its services, from urgent and emergency care to elective operations and mental health support.

The tables see trusts categorised in four segments, with the first reflecting the best performers and the fourth showing the worst.

To allow for fair comparisons, the trusts ware grouped into acute, non-acute and ambulance trusts.
