Warning and Informing notes28th April 20201.Action log1.1The action log was updated and can be viewed on the Teams site.2.Key messages and areas of focus2.1Stay at HomeIn SCG and other meetings, it had been noticed that people were speculating about early release or getting bored of lockdown. There had been a lot of stay at home messaging and the group agreed that this would continue to be the focus but with harder messaging and the use of staff videos. The following actions were agreed:To look at wording that can be used on social media and shared with senior members are leaders to use on everything that they are doing.To look into whether we can get a video from a staff member from each organisation around the stay home for me message with different, harder hitting angles. (To be completed by Wednesday next week)The fire service would be assisting with mortuary in Poole from Wednesday. This story could be used in the media to emphasise the stronger messaging regarding staying home. LK to see if there is a fire fighter who would share their story.PHE are also planning to do as stay at home video with a spokesperson from PHE, due to be filmed early next week, and could be used to complement local messaging.There had been interest from the BBC, the Echo and Solent on staff stories, and these videos could potentially be shared with them. It was noted that it was important to show a united front on the stay at home messaging so as not create a potential backlash against the police and public disorder as seen in other places.KHALLLK2.2VE DaySCG had asked for direction on VE celebrations. The group agreed that this would be no street parties, no large gatherings and to use back gardens rather than front. Jen and Georgia would create the content and share on the Teams site ready for the content to be scheduled and shared.2.3Staff videosThere had been national interest in the staff morale boosting videos and whether or not these were appropriate. Dorset Police, RBH and Poole Hospital have taken a view and will not be sharing the videos on their external channels but may share them internally. The group agreed this approach should be adopted across Dorset.2.4Thanking local heroesDorset Police have some artwork that has not yet been used around a shout out to local heroes which could be adapted to be relevant for the LRF. There were potential issues for the police as they had been asked not to identify themselves on social media and this was being looked into as to how this could work for them.The group agreed that this would be nice to do but that the focus was currently the stay at home messaging. This could be planned for a couple of weeks’ time.3.System updates3.1Public Health EnglandA trawling email from Newsnight had been sent to a number of authorities asking for stats and data on the number of community and hospital deaths., including Dorset Council. The response to this enquiry is that we don’t comment on cases and that they are collated nationally and to go to NHS England for hospital figures and ONS for community figures.There have been a couple of news articles regarding a rise in cases of the number of children presenting with multisystem inflammatory state. This had been based on little scientific information and more information may come out on this. PHE are working to produce a national line which should be available by the end of the week.3.2Dorset CCGContinuing the campaign on accessing NHS services and the artwork will be available on the Teams site soon.
