Risks to people and staff in relation to their health, safety and wellbeing had been assessed. There was support for staff in place which included training, guidance and access to additional support at provider level.
Staff received training in relation to COVID-19 to enable them to immediately instigate full infection control measures when people tested positive or showed symptoms.
All staff working at the service had been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or had declared themselves medically exempt. The provider had introduced a process to ensure that staff met the vaccination requirements and had provided evidence to their satisfaction. Those staff in high risk groups such as BAME, clinically 'extremely vulnerable' had been assessed and actions in place to mitigate risks.
