As many as 20 different roles are involved in caring for patients on critical care. We speak to some of those in these different roles. 

In 2022, Ramadan will take place between the evening of Saturday 2 April and end on the evening of Sunday 1 May, followed by the celebration of Eid Al-Fitr.

When the Covid-19 pandemic hit in March 2020 and the world went into lockdown, our hospitals were forced to adapt overnight. We went from welcoming hundreds of family members and loved ones each day, to only allowing staff and patients through our doors. This brought about new challenges, many of which were unique to the diverse cultures, languages and faiths of our local populations. 

We take a look back at how Covid-19 impacted and changed the way we work, and the successes our trust had during these unprecidented times. 

In response to the pandemic, planned surgeries were cancelled to help with the increase in Covid-19 cases. Because of this, some patients have been waiting for their surgery for more than a year or two. Many of those currently waiting are children or young people in need of ear, nose or throat (ENT) surgery.
