Well done to the community COVID-19 testing team on winning this year’s Local Primary Care Award for the Most Valued Service in the Trust!

The community swabbing service was created within 24 hours of the request being made as part of the Trust’s response to support patients, colleagues and their families during the pandemic. The team has carried out over 7,641 tests for SWB colleagues, their household members and patients requiring a planned procedure at one of our hospital sites including BMEC and community dentistry.
