Guidance was sent out to all National Health Service departments on Friday 20 March from NHS England and NHS Improvement about supporting vulnerable staff. A copy of the guidance is attached. The guidance states that “The NHS will support staff to stay well and at work. NHS organisations should make adjustments to enable this wherever possible. Adjustments may include working remotely or moving to a lower risk area.”
