We found the following examples of good practice. The service was clean and extra cleaning duties were being carried out such as regular deep cleaning and cleaning of areas that were often touched. Such as door handles, stair rails and light switches. Cleaning schedules were put in place and were easy for staff to follow.
We saw staff using personal protective equipment (PPE) appropriately. PPE 'stations' were available on every floor and in people's rooms to ensure PPE was available to staff when needed.
The provider and registered manager were following advice and guidance from other agencies about infection control and prevention and had updated staff training and practice accordingly.
