Today, BBC Midlands Today have featured our colleagues talking about the significant rise in viral respiratory infections that's already impacting services across the region. ๐Ÿ“บ

With flu, COVID 19, RSV and other seasonal bugs showing up earlier, our teams are working around the clock to protect patients and keep our hospitals running. ๐Ÿฆ 

Hereโ€™s how YOU can help Solihull Hospital:
โœ…Think before you head to an A&E โ€” if you have flu like symptoms, contact your pharmacist or NHS 111 or visit our Urgent Treatment Centre for minor illness or injuries.
โœ…If youโ€™re eligible for a flu or COVID 19 vaccine โ€” please get it. It not only protects you but eases pressure on the NHS.
โœ… Practice good hygiene: cover your coughs and sneezes, wash your hands regularly, and stay home if youโ€™re unwell.

Weโ€™re committed to ensuring that patients who undergo surgery at our hospital have the best experience possible.

Part of the journey of surgery is for patients to be as well prepared as possible; thatโ€™s why weโ€™ve created a brand-new resource on our website for all things surgery. The new resource includes information about how to get ready, what to expect on the day and what happens afterwards.

If you or someone you know is on a waiting list for surgery, or your just curious to know more, check it out via the link in the comments below ๐Ÿ‘‡

On a fun-filled lunch break, colleagues gathered to celebrate the surgical hubโ€™s first birthday. Time was taken to pause and reflect, appreciating the hard work that each member of the team has done over the past year.

To celebrate, Martin Richardson (Executive Director), Gregg Bramwell (General Manager), Lucy Henderson and Chris Sawyers (Theatres Managers) shared some words of appreciation.

Just under 5,000 additional operations have been completed thanks to this new facility, and the whole team is looking forward to the new 5,000!

Well done everyone and happy birthday ๐ŸŽ‚๐Ÿ’™

The Festival of Lights, also known as Diwali, is one of the most popular festivals in Asia and is a time for celebrating by Hindus, Sikhs, and Jains.

Diwali signifies the spiritual triumph of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance.

The Sikh celebration known as Bandi Chhor Divas ("Day of Liberation") commemorates the day when, the sixth Guru of Sikhs, was released from Gwalior Fort. The Hindu festival of Diwali often coincides with this day.

We wish everyone celebrating a very happy Diwali.

Today we're saying a huge thank you to all of our Allied Health Professionals (AHPs) on . ๐ŸŒŸ

AHPs are made up of 14 different professions and play a vital role in the care and recovery of patients.

They come from many different professional backgrounds, including dietitians, occupational therapists, operating department practitioners, orthotists, physiotherapists, radiographers, speech and language therapists, and more.

Together, they play a vital role in the care and recovery of our patients and are the third-largest staff group in the NHS. Today AHP'S from across UHB have joined together, to celebrate at a AHP showcase at Good Hope Hospital and last week AHPโ€™s also gathered at a showcase at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham. Both included lectures, stands and celebrations of the important work they do across our hospitals.๐Ÿ‘
