On arrival visitors were asked to wash and sanitise their hands, put on personal protective equipment (PPE), show a negative lateral flow test and provide proof of a vaccination status prior to entering the home.
Staff had access to supplies of PPE and had received training to ensure they used this correctly. All staff and people accessing the service had regular testing for COVID-19. All staff had received their vaccinations.
The provider had assessed the impact of how PPE may cause fear and anxiety for residents and also assessed the type of PPE required for specific groups to enable lip reading for example.
The home was clean throughout with effective systems in place to promote good hygiene practices.
The home manager sought support and advice from external agencies, where required, including the local health protection team.
