November 04 2020: Gov.uk: New guidance to support safe care home visits during lockdown

Care homes will be encouraged and supported to provide safe visiting opportunities as new national restrictions come into effect.

The key points of this new guidance include:

Visits should be tailored to residents and facilities and should prioritise residents and staff’s safety to limit the transmission of COVID-19
Care homes, especially those who have not allowed visits since March, will be encouraged and supported to provide safe visiting opportunities as new national restrictions come into effect
Measures put in place should provide COVID-secure opportunities for families to meet using visiting arrangements such as floor to ceiling screens, visiting pods, and window visits
