HOME W2: OUTBREAK (declared 16/02/2022)

NEW COVID POSITIVE CASES = 1 staff

There is a correction to the number of staff (remains at 4 staff even though we have an additional COVID positive staff today).

It takes some contact tracing to work through these details day to day. Staff who were COVID positive prior to today have returned to work.
Protocols:
  • Twice daily symptom screening for staff and residents
