Brilliant feedback from @kelly_educator! Thank you for sharing your LAMP experience and your reasons for participating in asymptomatic testing.
! All staff are now able to send samples once registered !
Please contact your COVID Champion for advice and information.
So impressed dropped my first lamp sample off at 1pm and got my results this evening. I get tested to keep patient, staff, myself and my family safe. #fightingcovid
A HUGE well done to our COVID Champions @LancsHospitals! We now have 2,512 members of staff registered to LAMP testing with 525 staff already sending a sample! We are so grateful for your hard work! LET'S SEE IF WE CAN MAKE 1000 SAMPLES SENT BY SUNDAY! @ClaireW_C19@SarahC_RN
Huge WELL DONE and THANK YOU to @Anwah001 and his team @NRU_LTHTR who are the first team to successfully onboard and register every member of staff to LAMP asymptomatic testing. Brilliant achievement! @ClaireW_C19 @katebamber2606

While COVID-19 vaccines have been shown to reduce the likelihood of severe illness, We do not know how much they reduce the likelihood of a vaccinated person spreading the virus to others. We encourage all staff to utilise asymptomatic testing to help manage this risk!

A big Thank you to our CDH and RPH Portering services, who have gone above and beyond in helping with the distribution of Lateral Flow tests throughout @LancsHospitals. We really appreciate all your hard work and help! @ClaireW_C19@SarahC_RN
Excellent achievement @rookwoodbLTHTR! Compliance with Lateral Flow testing helps to reduce the risk of nosocomial infections. Therefore, improving patient safety, increasing patient confidence in our services and making ward areas safer for patients to attend!
