A reminder about your lateral flow test kits

NHS organisations no longer receive supplies of LFT kits so NHS staff must order their own online. These should be delivered to your home address (they fit through letter boxes and will not be accepted if delivered to a work address). If you need help ordering you can call 119, lines are open 7am to 11pm every day.

If you’re patient facing, report your twice weekly results on: https://stafftesting.merseycare.nhs.uk/ or for Mid Mersey Division staff it’s: https://nwbstafftesting.xmerseyhc.nhs.uk/.

If you have questions, read more on YourSpace.

You should report all results online. If you test positive you should isolate, inform your line manager and occupational health on 0151 471 2451 or email: Occupationalhealth@merseycare.nhs.uk; Mid Mersey Division colleagues should call 01925 664 010 or email: OccHealth@merseycare.nhs.uk

You must arrange a PCR test at a testing centre local to you by booking online: https://www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test or call 119 if you need help.

You should not complete lateral flow testing if you’ve had COVID-19 in the last 90 days. If you have symptoms, please follow NHS guidance online.
