The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus here in the UK has presented the health and social care sector with an unprecedented challenge.
As the Coronavirus is fast-moving and ever-growing, proactive action is essential. The critical area of importance is to ensure that the quality of health and social services remains at the highest possible level, without endangering care workers.
Ensuring best practice is observed is essential.
Care 4 Quality. support can be enlisted remotely to provide guidance, ensuring that carers fully understand the requirements that care homes must meet in order to protect their clients and ensure compliance with CQC regulations.
Friends and family of the elderly in care homes will naturally be anxious to ensure that their loved ones will get the best possible protection against contracting the COVID-19 virus.
