All staff in Nursing Homes must wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in order to maximise the chances of our vulnerable family members staying healthy and free of COVID-19.
Why is this important?
Clusters of COVID-19 are emerging in Nursing homes across the country putting very vulnerable people at risk. In order to protect residents and to cut down on the number of infections, staff in Nursing homes need to use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at all times irrespective of whether or not they themselves are symptomatic.
