Are you using the correct entrance when entering and leaving Sandwell?

June 8, 2021

With the Trust having now opened its new Urgent Treatment Centre we must ensure all colleagues are using the correct entrance when entering and leaving Sandwell Hospital.

The main A&E entrance is strictly for patients only and should not be used routinely by clinical or non-clinical colleagues unless absolutely necessary.  This is to prevent long queues forming in and around A&E and its main entrance. Colleagues should instead be using the entrance by main reception.

Note: Our security team have now been instructed to not allow colleagues to use the main A&E entrance unless absolutely necessary and no alternative is available.

Thank you for your co-operation.
