HEALTH care services are being supported with expertise and equipment from Teesside University as they continue the fight against coronavirus.
The University’s School of Health & Life Sciences is running a series of webinars on developing critical care skills for health care staff to prepare them for frontline care as a result of the covid-19 outbreak.
The School has also donated a number of tablets and mobile devices to health trusts to enable people in palliative care to communicate with relatives and loved ones.
Last month the University’s National Horizons Centre lent state-of-the-art analytical equipment to the NHS to enable testing for the virus to be stepped up.
Linda Nelson, Associate Dean, said: “It is vital that, if we are to succeed in the fight against the coronavirus, that organisations must come together and work in partnership."
