UHP Staff Support Hub
We have created this Support Hub, which pulls together a range of resources and materials to help colleagues during the Coronavirus pandemic. This is designed to help you find information quickly to support your health and wellbeing. We have created four areas within the Support Hub which each contain more detail and further links to advice and guidance on the different Psychological, Practical, Physical and Professional support available to you.
Centralised Absence Reporting Line
Self-isolation guidance (following changes on 16 August 2021): All colleagues must still continue to contact the Centralised Absence Hub if they have been advised or are aware they are a contact of a confirmed case of COVID-19. Under the updated national guidance, there is an explicit requirement for staff members to inform their employer immediately if they are required to work in the 10 days following their last contact with a COVID-19 case. For UHP staff, this contact is to be made via the Trust’s Centralised Absence Hub. Trained staff will then guide you through a risk assessment.
Colleagues, including bank staff and volunteers, must still contact the Trust’s Centralised Absence Hub on 01752 430000 where they have been advised they are a contact of a confirmed case of COVID-19 or if they are aware of being in contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19.
If you feel unwell and have any concerns about symptoms, please isolate your household and call the Centralised Absence Reporting Line on 01752 430000. The line is manned from 06.00 to 20.00. If calling between 20.00 and 06.00, please leave a message on the answering machine.
