Winter supply planning for FFP3 masks

1. Introduction

0%

Winter is the peak period for demand and supply of key products including FFP3 masks across the NHS. Recent winters have required NHS Supply Chain to enact disruption management processes to ensure continuity of supply of key and critical products. A number of our customers have informed us that the current stocked FFP3 masks available via our Framework Agreement are not suitable for all staff and have undertaken fit testing to identify masks that will provide the appropriate protection for each and every member of their staff.

As such we want to review the masks on our stocked route of supply so that we can best support our customers and we would really appreciate your support by completing this survey which should take around 5 minutes to complete. We would really appreciate you taking the time to complete the survey whether you are a current customer or not.

All responses will be treated in confidence and will be reviewed by the Research and Insight team, who will collate and analyse the responses.

We then anticipate to appraise the responses against the awarded products on the Framework Agreement and identify whether we need to amend the products available via our stocked route in readiness for winter.

We really value your support. Please click on the 'Next Page' button to start the survey.
