This information will support the NHS Track and Trace process and will be stored by the Operations Director and disposed of after 3 weeks.
• Wash hands on entry to the building
• Use the alcohol hand gel regularly
• Enter via the front door and exit via the back door

• Keep to the 2-metre distancing rule
• Follow the ‘catch it, bin it’ rules when coughing or sneezing.
• Face coverings MUST cover both the nose and mouth at all times.
• We have a supply of disposable face coverings available from reception, please inform our reception team if you require a face covering.
