We found the following examples of good practice.
The home had systems to ensure all visitors, including professional visitors met vaccination and testing requirements. There was an electronic system accesed by a touch screen in the entrance way which logged the visitor's COVID 19 vaccination pass, lateral flow device test result and temperature.
All areas of the home were visibly clean and tidy. A member of domestic staff was assigned to each floor. They used cleaning schedules and checklists which were checked daily by the head housekeeper and any gaps or issues addressed immediately.
Senior care staff had received training in how to take observations of resident's health. They recorded observations in electronic patient notes on small mobile devices at the point of care.
