Still time to take part in Lateral Flow Testing

The Trust is continuing to offer everyone in the Trust Lateral Flow Home Testing Kits until Friday 18th December. 

The kits give you the opportunity to self-test for COVID-19 and get the results in 30 minutes. This will help protect your family, patients and colleagues from Coronavirus by early detection in asymptomatic cases.

The data gathered from these tests will help enormously in the fight against COVID-19.
The Tests help detect an early viral load meaning they catch the cases of people who are infectious before they display any symptoms. 95% of people with a high viral load will be detected and when identified. This allows early isolation and reducing the spread of the infection in the Trust and to our friends and family.

If you have yet to sign up and would like to take part then please follow the link below.

To find out more and register to receive a testing kit, please contact your local LOM, COVID lead or Lateral Flow Lead  who will guide you to the correct person for you area, or can be found on the Testing Home Page.

You only have until Friday 18^th December 2020, so hurry if you want to take part.
