Notice Information

Notice Title

Temporary staffing support to the NHS breast screening restoration programme

Notice Description

Covid-19 has created significant backlogs in women waiting to be invited for breast screening and in the screening pathway and, as a result, the Public Heath Commissioning and Operations team (PHCO) has put in place an extensive restoration programme agreed with the NHSEI Breast Screening Programme Board and our Clinical Directors of Breast Screening. We require additional temporary support to work alongside PHCO to challenge and further strengthen this restoration plan and support rapid implementation via regional public health commissioning teams.
