*UKHSA Webinar on Wednesday 2nd September at 2pm
UKHSA have set up an online acute respiratory infection (ARI) outbreak reporting tool for nursing and residential care home settings in the South East
The Outbreak Reporting tool is set to be launched on the 7th September and UKHSA have set up a webinar that outlines the aim of this tool and how it links with the use of the LFD testing that was trialled in Winter 2025.
This session is designed specifically for care home managers, deputy managers, clinical leads and senior care home staff responsible for outbreak management, and will be used to report a single confirmed case of flu or an outbreak of respiratory infection, including COVID-19, flu and RSV.
The webinar will explain:
- An update on the use and replenishment of combination LFDs
- When a respiratory outbreak should be reported.
- The information you'll need before starting.
- A step-by-step walkthrough of the reporting process.
- What happens after a report is submitted.
- Frequently asked questions.
