The NHS is really under pressure right now. Demand higher than ever and staff shortages made even harder by Covid. Giving our A&E staff a slow hand clap last week when they ask for patience as you wait is quite a change from the doorstep claps of last year, sad situation #CEOGlen
We have managed to vaccinate a lot of front line staff this week, primary care have also vaccinated very many over 80 year olds. So many people at a much lower Covid-19 risk due to the new dosing strategy and an incredible team effort #safer#prouder#CEOGlen
Due to an emergency maintenance issue we have had to temporarily close the Emergency Department at Warwick Hospital. We are currently unable to treat patients, so please use alternative urgent care services. We will continue to keep the public updated. Thank you for your support.
Yesterday our new Paediatric Assessment Unit arrived onsite at Warwick Hospital! This new purpose designed building will enable us to assess and treat children in a designated area supporting our safe management of COVID-19. Click here to read more: https://t.co/vtfNApvox6

You can still meet up to 6 people and have visitors in your home. However we still need to follow guidance:
• Stay 2 metres away from people not from your household or bubble
• Use separate crockery, cutlery and plates
• Clean and disinfect all areas after your visitors leave
