I love working at Salts Healthcare because...

In a recent Annual Review, we wanted to take a dive into why our employees love working at Salts Healthcare. The feedback is invaluable and we thought it would nice to share some of their reasons with you.

Ear Protectors for Nurses and Carers

At Salts Healthcare, we have developed a new product that will hopefully make wearing PPE that much more bearable for NHS workers and carers. 50,000 of our new ear protectors have been distributed across the UK, free of charge to hospitals.

#ShareYourStory: Stefanie

Stefanie says that since her surgery, she is finally in control of her life again. After being so worried, Stefanie admits how wrong she was – life is now better than ever.

Scrubs for the NHS

After recognising the lack of PPE, Hannah and Katherine formed the Airedale Sewing Fairies. The group have been working hard to make scrubs to protect those who are working in hospitals, care homes and more. These were funded by kind donations from those who want to contribute to this lovely cause.
