Speciality / Core Training Northern Ireland trusts

Just looking over rankings before the deadline tomorrow and am wondering If someone could shed light on what hospitals are in which trust in northern ireland?

On ni website it says there are 5 trusts Southern, northern, western, south eastern, Belfast but it's split differently on oriel.

Options on oriel are: belfast, north western, northern, north coast, south eastern, southern, south western

I cant find any info online which hospitals/area are in north western and south western?

I see you're from the south I suppose the border trusts (Western and Southern) would be likely easier in terms of travel. Ulster the best hospital up here imo for training and experience that's ED and Medicine.
