COVID-19 vaccination remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues and of course our patients from the virus when working in our healthcare settings.

We do encourage our staff to get vaccinated. We will be checking the vaccination status of all new starters so that we can manage individual and environmental risks, and so that we can support those who may be undecided about vaccination. If you are unvaccinated there is helpful advice and information at birminghamandsolihullcovidvaccine.nhs.uk where you can also find out more about how to access vaccination.

Please note that staff recruited from outside of the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
