Reminder: Changes to PPE hub opening hours

July 31, 2020

The PPE distribution hubs are experiencing reduced activity at the weekends so going forward it is planned that they will not open at weekends unless there is a future identified need. The PPE teams will stock up areas on Fridays to ensure wherever possible weekend need is removed. The rooms will be stocked with PPE and can be accessed out of hours by security or CNPs as required.

The opening hours of the PPE hub rooms at Bryan Knight (Sandwell) and reception area outside the foot health and diabetes outpatients clinic – on the first floor above Arches Café (City) have changed to the following:

  • Monday – Friday, 7am – 5pm
  • Saturday – Sunday, closed

The procurement team will ensure deliveries to all areas are increased to compensate for the reduced opening hours.

Note: Scrubs should be collected from the wards where they are delivered daily. Scrubs are not available from the PPE hubs at either Sandwell or City.
