We found the following examples of good practice.

Relatives told us they were happy with the IPC measures that were followed when they visited. They said the staff were very reassuring and did all they could to keep everyone safe. Government guidance was being followed and visits were not restricted.

People were being supported to go to the shops and spend time outside of the care home.

Most staff were wearing PPE correctly and knew how to put it on and take it off. Where we observed minor discrepancies, these were immediately addressed by the registered manager.

Staff had been trained in IPC measures and competency checks of hand washing and PPE use were completed.

Policies, procedures and contingency plans were in place.
