Guidance has been issued to National Health Service providers and commissioning trusts on resetting non-COVID-19 services, including elective surgery. Decisions on how this is done, including apportionment of the workforce, will be taken at local level, based on local demand and local capacity. Infection control will be a guiding principle in the safe resumption of services.<\/p>
<\/p>
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, qualified staff who have previously left the NHS have been encouraged to return to the NHS to increase the available workforce. Additionally, an unprecedented deal with the independent sector will support the NHS in delivering elective surgery whilst maintaining capacity to deal with a potential second surge in COVID-19 cases.<\/p>"}

A COVID-19 risk assessment was carried out for the whole of the Departmental estate, including 39 Victoria Street and Quarry House, and the assessment was published to staff on 10 June 2020.<\/p>
The risk assessment was carried out by the Deputy Director for Property and Smarter Working and signed off by the Department\u2019s Executive Committee.<\/p>
The COVID-safe capacity at 39 Victoria Street is 380 and at Quarry House it is 300. That represents approximately a 60% reduction in workplace capacity.<\/p>
The Department worked with directors to identify individuals who needed to return to the office. These staff members have had discussions with line managers and been provided with access to a desk booking system as well as updates on the COVID-safety measures within Departmental buildings.<\/p>

The National Health Service is currently supporting developments and improvements through the Estates and Technology Transformation Fund (ETTF) and an Improvement Grant budget within primary care estates. The ETTF aims to accelerate changes in general practice infrastructure to enable improvement in access and service quality. The ETTF is investing £800 million in both capital and revenue between 2016 and 2021. This is in addition to annual investment in general practice IT (Information Technology) and \u2018business as usual\u2019 capital.<\/p>
The NHS Long Term Plan outlines a prominent role for primary care networks for delivering the shift of activity from the acute sector to an in-community care environment. The Health Infrastructure Plan, published September 2019, recognises that community care and primary care is critical to the delivery of personalised and preventative health. Future NHS capital funding, including for primary care, will be provided as part of the Department's multi-year capital settlement at the Spending Review which will conclude in autumn 2020.<\/p>"}
