Public Health England (PHE) are reviewing the details of the guidance recently published by Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to identify any elements of good practice that should be considered for introduction into the United Kingdom. Initial reviews of the information that we have received so far suggest that the CDC and PHE guidance are functionally comparable.<\/p>

Symptoms of Ebola can emerge at any time up to 21 days after exposure to the virus and there is therefore a chance that an individual may be well on their return to the United Kingdom, but then subsequently develop symptoms.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

As part of the entry screening process all returning travellers, including health care workers, humanitarian care workers and any other returnees from an affected country, who have been involved in any activities involving contact with cases of Ebola, will receive information about Ebola symptoms and what to do in the event of becoming unwell.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The screening programme is a valuable point of reassurance that we have met with returning health and humanitarian care workers, and assessed requirements to monitor and support them. Those with any particular risks will be actively monitored for a 21 day period.<\/p>

Screening is being carried out by Public Health England health protection practitioners (HPPs), with supervision from health protection consultants. The HPPs are supported by administrative staff for the collation of the health assessment forms, prior to the risk categorisation.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

There is a clear evidence-based algorithm to follow for screening staff at ports. All of the screening staff members have had specific training on the guidelines. In addition, screening staff have also received a briefing (either face-to-face or in the form of a video) on the use of personal protective equipment, and have been trained in the correct use of a tympanic thermometer.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

We have a planned programme of continuous quality improvement, incorporating learning to date from early implementation of the screening programme.<\/p>

People are ordinarily told to seek advice, provided that they are not suffering from a severe acute illness requiring immediate emergency care, by calling their Public Health England monitoring officer (if they are in the returning worker monitoring programme) or calling NHS 111. They may advise attendance at an Emergency Department for assessment (in such circumstance the Emergency Department concerned would have been pre-warned of the arrival of the patient to ensure that appropriate infection control measures are in place).<\/p>

The UK is leading the international response to Ebola in Sierra Leone. This outbreak of Ebola is unprecedented in scale and highlights the vital importance of strong public healthcare systems. The UK is the biggest bilateral donor to Sierra Leone and commenced a major health systems programme in 2012.<\/p>
