We are seeing an increased number of Covid cases in our hospitals. Please follow infection prevention guidance, including regular handwashing.

If you have symptoms and feel unwell or have a temperature, please do not attend work. You’ll find all the information on our staff testing and action cards page of the intranet.

We’re still awaiting guidance on offering both the flu and Covid vaccines to colleagues in non-patient facing roles, and our Medical Director, David Birkenhead, is linked in with regional colleagues on this. The advice for now if you are clinically extremely vulnerable (CEV) or are otherwise eligible, is to receive the vaccines in a community setting.
