Albany Nursing Home

Albany Nursing Home provides nursing and personal care for up to 61 people, some living with dementia, with accommodation spread across three floors. During the inspection, the home had implemented robust infection control measures including temperature checks, scheduled appointments, and lateral flow tests for visitors when visits were permitted. Staff maintained social distancing protocols, with restrictions on numbers in shared spaces.

Relatives received support with personal protective equipment and hand hygiene guidance. The home had appropriately isolated people who tested positive for coronavirus and implemented an internal system to assess transmission risk and minimise spread of infection.
