Single supplier - technical reasons
The current company work within FPH at weekends and have been providing audiology support for over a year at weekends for our DMO1 performance. The team originally started working with Royal Surrey and until April Royal Surrey has been the supplier of our audiology service. Royal Surrey has now served the Trust notice to exit the service provided. This meant we had oversight and clear governance of the company coming in to complete the additional clinics.
