A new iteration of the Government guidance on visiting in care homes was issued on 14.5.21 to expand the number of named visitors and add clarification about under-18s. 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 (14.5.21) which includes scenarios where the 14-day isolation no longer applies.
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.
