Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many NHS staff (a) are working primarily in the NHS Nightingale Hospital in Yorkshire and (b) have worked at that site since its inception.

Nightingale hospital Yorkshire and the Humber has not been required to open for COVID-19 patients, therefore no National Health Service staff currently working at the site to care for patients with COVID-19. A number of NHS staff worked on-site during the establishment of the hospital and these numbers varied on a day-to-day basis.

However, there is currently a CT scanning service delivered from the site which supports the delivery of medical imaging services for local hospital trusts. This is staffed each day as necessary to run this service.
