Air Tube ( pod ) system offline at Sandwell Hospital

October 19, 2018

The air tube system on the Sandwell site has been taken offline today due to a burst water pipe in the basement duct room.
The air tube will not become available until after the weekend.

Until the air tube is repaired wards must instigate their contingency plans for the failure of the air tube e.g. alternatives methods used to send samples to the Pathology Department.
