The NHS Confederation has today warned that recovery from COVID-19 could continue for a very long time with 10 million patients potentially left waiting for important treatment. It warns that the NHS faces an uphill battle as it continues to manage thousands of very sick and recovering COVID-19 patients, maintain social distancing and restart services to treat cancer, stroke and heart care.
Marie Lee, Managing Director of Totally Healthcare, describes how the team is working in partnership with hospitals as they begin inviting patients back for elective treatment following suspension of many services during the first phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The insourcing healthcare division of Totally plc specialises in working with hospitals to reduce their patient waiting lists. Our expert insourcing teams utilise the hospitals infrastructure to deliver services across multiple specialties during times when the hospitals are not using some of the clinic spaces and equipment, often at evenings and weekends.
Totally plc (LON:TLY) addresses the challenges of increased demand on healthcare services by delivering high-quality planned, urgent and insourcing healthcare across the UK and Ireland.
