This week’s edition includes lots of news and updates from across the Trust.

We are pleased to announce that from today (Tuesday 24 November), we will be offering Lateral Flow Testing for clinical and non-clinical colleagues across UHMBT who are in contact with patients.

Good Governance Institute  

To make sure that we have a real sense of what our workforce thinks, what we’re doing well and where we need to improve; there is still time to fill out the anonymous survey. The anonymous survey will allow the GGI to hear from you about how we provide assurance when looking after our patients and how we communicate with each other about this.

Tell us if you have had your Influenza vaccine

As we continue our fight against Influenza please can you let the Occupational Health and Wellbeing team know if you have received your vaccine elsewhere? We are urging remaining staff to receive their influenza vaccination as soon as possible, in light of preparation for the potential upcoming Coronavirus vaccine. 

 

Next week: The Staff Disability Network are doing a Weekly News takeover on the 1st December to mark ‘Disability History Month’ 28th Nov – 20th Dec. The theme for the week is ‘access’: How far have we come? How far have we to go?
