Specialty- and service-specific guidance and pathways
The NHS has produced a number of specialty guides which are aimed at specialists working in hospitals in England during the pandemic. They are described as not bring proscriptive and can be adapted to local service provision and geography. We need to continue to provide essential care for patients within their speciality whilst supporting the wider hospital and community in providing care for patients with coronavirus.
