We found the following examples of good practice.
There was a clear processes in place to allow visitors to meet family members in the home. Visitors were required to provide a negative lateral flow test before entering the home to help keep them and those they were visiting safe.
Senior care staff had completed a programme to upskill them to care practitioners. The Registered Manager told us this gave them more flexibility with staffing arrangements to ensure they continued to staff the home safely and meet people's needs.
Systems were in place to ensure staff received up to date guidance and training to ensure those staff continued to meet government guidelines for safe infection control practices to reduce the risk of cross infection.
