We found the following examples of good practice:

A purpose-built log cabin had been installed in the home's garden. This had been divided into two separate sections by a Perspex screen to allow people living in the home and their family members to visit each other safely.

Three pulse oximeters had been purchased by the provider and staff used these to measure residents' oxygen levels twice a day.

The provider had purchased a specialist ultraviolet sterilising machine to enhance its usual cleaning routines.
