Pulse Oximeters and Sats probes

Hello all,

I hope you are all well.

Does anyone know where the centralised stock of pulse oximeters is and how to gain access to them? This question was raised on an NHS procurement forum earlier this week. By early July, the government will have purchased 310,000 pulse oximeters (types & models unknown). They are to be split in the following way:

1. 15,000 for care homes,
2. 10,000 for rapid pilots,
3. 210,000 for community, &
4. 75,000 for acute hospitals for SDEC.

I have half a page (from an official pdf document) which states the above, but I can’t identify who wrote it or were it was published. Is there anyway to upload this pdf, to this forum, just in case someone may be able to identify it?

I’m sure most of our Trusts require access to these pulse oximeters now!

Any help, will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

Eddie.
