Description

The Council has a need to commission a Covid-19 Outreach service as the current services available has not proved suitable for everyone in our Kirklees population. We know that outreach testing including home testing, mobile testing for small outbreaks and surveillance testing in care homes and other community settings is required to bridge this gap. Without the COVID-19 Outreach Testing Service there is no provision for outreach testing. A flexible service responsive to local need will be crucial in our local response to outbreak management. A locally commissioned COVID-19 Outreach Testing Service will be required to provide: a. Home testing service (for those unable to attend a drive through Mobile Testing Unit) b. Mobile testing for outbreak response (small) c. Surveillance testing in care homes and other community settings d. Asymptomatic testing as and when needed
