Very proud that SMTL, along with our @NWSSP Procurement colleagues have been shortlisted for two awards at the forthcoming #goawardswales event at the end of April. Fingers crossed.

@roxdavies1 @wynowensnwssp @SMTLab @NWSSP Big thank you to the building managers group for helping us stay Covid-safe whilst we carried on testing.

RT @wynowensnwssp: Delighted that the Medical & Clinical Sourcing Team and SMTL colleagues have been awarded the Covid19 Special Recognition Award. It’s richly deserved and a testament to enormous effort that the team put in. Well done guys! @NWSSP #nwsspawards

Congratulations to everyone at the #NWSSPAwards tonight, and well done colleagues at SMTL and Procurement. Terrific team work.

SMTL was part of a @mediwales Webinar today at which @iliff_helen spoke about her terrific #DistanceAware campaign (@DistanceAware). Brilliant way to end the afternoon on some Welsh Innovation.

@lshubwales @NWSSP @WelshGovernment The LSH has played a blinder since March, alongside Industry Wales, Welsh Gov and our terrific colleagues in NWSSP Procurement. Wales truly demonstrated the benefit of joined-up thinking. #NHSWales

Following changes to advice about face coverings on public transport along the Wales border, I am discussing this issue urgently with my scientific and medical advisers.

We will make a statement early next week about our position in Wales.

@oljanxspirit42 Ask @lshubwales to link us up. Requires a validated decontamination method, logistically acceptable to the NHS (no bleach baths!), shows the device still provides the required protection for staff and that safety (biocompatibility etc) is not compromised.

@maryhgagen @SWARMCovid19 Hi Mary. Our view is that it is better everyone recognises the status of the devices rather than be caught unawares. The focus is on supporting the procurement of compliant and certified products in the first place.

[SMTL @SMTLab]

@oljanxspirit42 @lshubwales Hi David. If you contact the @lshubwales they can put you in touch with me via email and we can deal with this and the reprocessing question.

[SMTL @SMTLab]

If you are looking to provide #PPE for #NHSWales during #COVID19, join us with colleagues from the life sciences hub and @nwssp this Thursday, 7 May, 2020 at 10:30am for "Providing PPE and getting it right."
