A new iteration of the Government guidance on visiting in care homes was issued on 6.4.21 to expand the number of named visitors and allow under 18s to visit. We expect further updates as we progress through the government’s Spring Roadmap to lifting restrictions. Guidance about onsite LFD testing can be found here. A new iteration of the visiting out of care homes guidance has also been issued (7.4.21).
Below you can find a link to our ‘Partners in Care’ resource which will help you implement this new guidance. There are also links to previous statements and campaigns to enable visiting in care homes.
