    Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust says it is making every effort to prepare for EU exit, with patient care and safety a priority.

    The trust said in a statement that, although it is not current government policy to pursue a ‘no deal’ EU exit, no deal contingency planning has been stepped up ahead of the set date of departure of 29 March.

    The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) is leading national NHS preparations for a ‘no deal’ EU exit, and the trust is using existing Emergency Preparedness, Resilience and Response (EPRR) processes and procedures to make their own preparations.

    The trust added it is closely following advice from government and is keen to reassure patients that medicines and equipment will continue to be available with any disruption minimal.
