CONTINGENCY PLANNING AGAINST A SURGE IN SWINE FLU CASES
Click to go Back

All providers of Independent Sector Social Care and Health Services in Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin

Over the last few months SPIC has sent out a number of ALERTS regarding contingency planning against a surge in Swine Flu cases. Attached is a copy of a useful tick list which will help you check that your contingency planning is up to date and that no element has been overlooked.

Both local authorities wish to assure themselves that adequate planning is in place in the event of pressures as a result of a surge in the number of cases both among clients and staff and you are asked to do this if you contract with Shropshire Council and / or Telford & Wrekin Council by returning the completed tick list to the addresses shown at the end of the tick list by the end of October.

Many thanks for your cooperation in this.

Please note that Shropshire Council and Telford & Wrekin Council have asked that SPIC is the main point of contact for the sector when dealing with pandemic flu and I have agreed that, in such cases, we will include non members in our coverage. However non members will not be able to avail themselves of SPIC’s advice and support services. If you would like information on SPIC membership please contact us through the address below
