9 Allenby Road provides personal and nursing care for up to four people with learning disabilities, offering respite care in one adapted building. The home demonstrated strong infection control practices, with clear signage at the entrance alerting visitors to restrictions and required measures. Staff implemented comprehensive safety protocols including temperature checks for all visitors, hand sanitising stations, and disposable masks.

A one-way system and two-metre demarcation lines ensured social distancing throughout the premises. Personal protective equipment was readily available in each resident's bedroom, and staff consistently wore appropriate PPE during personal care and face masks at all times. The home maintained good supplies of all necessary items and had conducted thorough risk assessments for staff, accounting for individual health conditions and recognised risks affecting people from black, Asian and other ethnic minority backgrounds.
