NHS England have made an urgent appeal for data on all vacant space within primary care accommodation, which could potentially be used during the current COVID-19 outbreak.
They have issued a vacant accommodation register for all privately owned medical centres, which they have asked is completed and returned to NHS England by 20 March.
We understand from the Primary Care Premises Forum that no decision as to property or rental costs have been made and it should be assumed at present that no financial return will be made.
If you have vacant space available and would like to offer details of that, please get in touch with NHS England urgently or contact us and we can send you the relevant register for completion.
We are happy to provide support to you in relation to any arrangements you agree in this regard, please contact a member of our team should you wish to discuss this or any other property concern you may have at this uncertain time.
As always, we remain committed to supporting you with a high level of service and support. Our technology infrastructure and business continuity planning ensures that all our systems and processes can be operated remotely, and securely, with no interruption to normal service levels and our aim is to provide you with a ‘business as usual’, robust service should any of our team need to work remotely.
