We found the following examples of good practice.

The provider was following best practice guidance in terms of ensuring visitors to the home did not spread COVID-19. Staff were adhering to personal protective equipment (PPE) guidance and practices.

Communal areas were well spaced and people, with support from staff were encouraged to maintain social distancing and use face masks in the community where required. Clear plans were in place for those who may be required to self-isolate. For those people who may struggle with isolation additional support would be provided.

The service had systems in place for safe visiting to allow people to see and speak to their friends and relatives. People were also supported to spend time in the community.

Staff continued to support people to access healthcare, and arrangements were in place should people need to attend hospital safely.
