Covid-19

The PPSA are working closely with both NHS stakeholders and Suppliers during the outbreak of Covid-19. This is to ensure that continuity of supply is maintained to both hospital and homecare patients ensuring contingency plans have been activated. The PPSA are also working closely with National Associations to co-ordinate our response in these unprecedented times.

We are actively supporting the South West Pathology laboratories at this time – ensuring delivery of Covid-19 testing kits and analysers to assist with the increasing number of daily tests in line with Government requirements.
