Staff Vaccination Programme
75% of staff have had their Covid vaccine so far although uptake is lower in staff under the age of 35 as well as those from Black and Asian communities
The Oxford Astra/Zeneca vaccine is available to all Trust, Vinci and Medirest staff please click here to book your appointment at the Saint Helens Rugby Ground (open 7 days a week)
If you are unsure about the vaccine please see information to help inform your decision as well as videos and FAQs on the staff covid website
Army Support Staff
From Monday a group of non-clinical Army support officers will be joining the Trust to lend a helping hand to our Facilities and Discharge teams.
They’ll be easy to spot as they will be wearing military uniform…unless it’s camouflage 😉 Please make them feel welcome.
Time For You – Our wellbeing Festival continues TONIGHT
We’re bringing this week to a close with some high energy additions to the Time for You festival.
Our fifth and final headliner this week is Locksmith.
Missed it? Don’t Miss out
Yesterday evening, as part of our Time for You Festival, ex-Marine Andy Grant spoke to staff about the challenges he has faced throughout his life and how he believes trauma need not determine you as a person.
Andy suffered life-changing injuries in Afghanistan, but it was his mental health journey and how he overcomes the psychological pressure that he related to the experience of NHS staff during the pandemic.
It was a powerful and inspiring talk, and his story is something that we feel will greatly benefit staff right across the Trust.
Many of those who took part in the webinar have commented on how valuable and helpful the talk has been to them.
A recording of Andy’s webinar is on the COVID website and also on the Trust’s YouTube channel.
