We found the following examples of good practice.
Visitors were screened for symptoms and answered set questions relating to COVID-19 to ensure their visit could take place safely in line with current guidance.
The provider was following local authority guidelines. Due to a small COVID-19 outbreak in the home, people were isolating in their rooms on the day of inspection.
Discreet signage on people's bedrooms doors clearly highlighted which people were isolating due to testing positive for COVID-19.
The provider had cleaning schedules in place. Touch points were cleaned frequently throughout the day. The registered manager completed infection control audits and competencies with staff around donning and doffing of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
People were supported to maintain contact with loved ones via telephone calls, video calls and pod visits. The provider had systems in place where people could receive visits from one loved one, once the period of isolation was completed.
