Induction Tour announcement – MMUH

August 23, 2024

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we stood down induction tours to allow Balfour Beatty the space they needed in order to complete the handover of the building.

We are pleased to inform you that new induction site tour capacity is now available for colleagues moving to Midland Met or who are cross site working.

These will be managed carefully and in line with our move schedule.

Starting on 27 August, Sandwell colleagues will have the first chance to book tours, as they’ll be the first to move in. After that Maternity and Neonates and the rest of City site will be able to book.

Tour slots will be open until the end of November with later slots being more widely available so don’t worry; we will have enough capacity.

It is important that you do your general online induction before you do your tour, as this will really help you get more from the site tour, as well as giving you more detailed MMUH knowledge and confidence.

More information on online induction is available here.

Booking guidance

  • Tours will be booked via Eventbrite and will clearly show that some slots are reserved for Sandwell staff only – please do not book into a slot that is not intended for you – it will be rescheduled to a later appropriate date
  • Tours can be booked by individuals or by your line manager
  • Please arrive for your tour on time and suitably dressed – full instructions will be emailed to you.
  • It is important that you prioritise attending your tour – if you need to cancel, you must inform the induction team in advance – swbh.mmuhinduction@nhs.net

Please note:

If you work in one of the following areas:

AMU
Critical Care
ED
Capacity
Maternity
Neonates
Paediatrics
Portering and Security
Pharmacy
Theatres
Therapies
Ward services

You do not need to book a general site tour – you will do this as part of your department tour which will be booked by your line manager or induction lead.

Colleagues who do not turn up for a tour without prior cancellation will need to rejoin the waiting list and will be a late priority. 

If you have any queries, please contact Jackie Cooper, MMUH Induction Team Lead or e-mail swbh.mmuhinduction@nhs.net
