As restrictions continue to ease, particularly relating to self-isolation requirements, there has been some updated guidance issued for Hospices relating to COVID testing.

All Hospice based staff are now asked to complete weekly PCR tests in addition to the twice weekly lateral flow testing we already complete. This testing programme will be introduced here within the next couple of weeks as soon as we have received the supplies of testing kits we need, in the meantime we are putting in place a clear process of how we will manage this and will share this with you as soon as it is finalised.

If you have any questions please ask either myself, Helen H or Ben and we will do our best to answer then but bear with us as we work through the guidance – we may not have all the answers straight away.

Kind Regards,

Lynn Grayson

Clinical Director
