Hopes Covid NHS staff will stay local

IT IS hoped many of the young nurses and doctors who stepped up and joined the local health service to help fight the Covid pandemic will say working within the Western Trust when the crisis comes to an end.

Since the start of the pandemic many student and newly qualified nursing and medical staff have begun their frontline careers ahead of schedule by joining the local health care service ahead of times.
