NHS Orders Update

Following the announcements made on 16 March 2020 and 20 March 2020 regarding orders received from the UK National Health Service for the supply of ventilators, Inspiration Healthcare Group plc (AIM: IHC), the global medical technology company is pleased to announce that the first of the consignments of ventilators has now arrived in the UK and will shortly be shipped to a holding and distribution facility managed by the Ministry of Defence.

In the last few days, Inspiration Healthcare has also extended its 24 hour helpline facility to give clinical staff at all UK hospitals access to qualified personnel employed by Inspiration who are able to give instructions on setting up of ventilators correctly and also to deal with any other issues which may arise during their use. This service is now offered to all ventilators supplied to the NHS through the UK government's ventilator challenge.

Neil Campbell, Inspiration Healthcare's CEO commented, "We are thrilled to get the first consignment of ventilators into the UK from our supplier. It has been a considerable challenge and at times uncertain due to the unprecedented world demand and the fragility of the whole supplychain. We will now quickly make sure they reach their final destinations so that they can be put to good use in the NHS. We are also pleased to have extended the Inspiration Healthcare 24 hour helpline which will give clinicians access to immediate information to ensure the ventilators can operate as effectively as possible."
