We found the following examples of good practice.
Effective systems were in place to ensure staff and visitors to the service followed government guidelines for wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Facilities were available for visitors to sanitise their hands and put on PPE.
Infection prevention and control (IPC) procedures were clear and followed by staff. All staff were trained in safe IPC practices. We observed staff wearing appropriate PPE and plentiful supplies were available at designated stations around the home.
A regular programme of testing for COVID-19 was in place for staff and people who lived in the service. There had been a good uptake of residents receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. The service had plans in place and knew how to respond to an outbreak of infection to ensure the safety of people and staff.
