Greenwell House Care Home

This nursing home provides personal and nursing care to up to 20 older people, with 14 residents in residence at inspection. The service has established robust infection prevention and control measures, including designated areas for putting on and removing personal protective equipment with appropriate storage to minimise contamination risks. All staff have completed training in infection prevention control, PPE use, and COVID-19 procedures, with the registered manager implementing competency checks to ensure correct application of guidance.

The home has introduced social distancing measures throughout the facility, reorganising staff handover meetings and break times to maintain distance between employees. Regular testing of both staff and residents is in place, with swift action taken to isolate any staff displaying symptoms. Posters and government guidance on infection prevention control and PPE are displayed throughout the service, ensuring staff have continuous access to up-to-date information.
