University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust

Background
In November 2020, Medacs Healthcare were awarded a Managed Service contract with the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) to recruit and manage a workforce of thousands of health and scientific staff across the UK Test and Trace Laboratory network. Part of this contract entailed working directly with University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust to recruit a new workforce of scientists, lab staff and logistics workers for a new purpose-built Lighthouse Laboratory for COVID-19 testing.
