We found the following examples of good practice.

The service had updated their policies and procedures to ensure infection prevention and control (IPC) processes were robust. Staff completed IPC training and were observed to be wearing the correct personal protective equipment (PPE) and following best practice.

Staff had designated areas for donning and doffing PPE, however, one of the donning stations was not suitable for infection control. The registered manager agreed to change the donning station to a more suitable area.

The service was clean and hygienic throughout. Staff had access to cleaning products and cleaning schedules were in place. Infection control audits took place to ensure the home remained clean and well maintained.

There were robust visiting protocols in place to ensure the provider was preventing visitors from catching and spreading infections. Visitors needed to take a lateral flow device (LFD) test and were provided with the necessary PPE upon entry to the home.

Staff were involved in regular COVID-19 testing and the provider made sure they were following the recent legal requirement for all staff and relevant visitors, such as health and social care professionals, to have had the COVID-19 vaccine.
