"While I know many of you will be hard at work over the holiday season, I hope you also find time to rest, relax and reconnect safely with your families and friends." from @Helen_Whately Care Newsletter - how many care home families will be reconnected.....#rightsforresidents
"Thanks to effective stockpiling, we’re confident you won’t run out of aprons, masks, gloves and other essentials. What’s more, you can continue to order these and other items through the PPE portal, free of charge, until March 2021" hope all our care homes can confirm this
"The roll out of visitor testing in care homes has also been another milestone with the majority of homes reporting they are providing the service. This means many more residents, visitors and staff can share in the joy of these emotional reunions" - this is a straight lie
most care home groups and councils are not recommending the use of the Lateral Flow Tests and will not allowed meaningful visits
"I’ve said before in this newsletter how the separation of residents and loved ones pained me. I’m so glad our sector partners, local authority leaders and NHS colleagues have worked together to lessen this heartbreak." another lie..
We are getting emails every day of families in total desperation not visits, not testing, no vaccines, no hope so not many joyful reunions - @Helen_Whately your end of term report does not read well your end of term score U must do a lot better #rightsforresidents

Thousands of our loved ones were promised hugs, vaccines, to be reunited at Christmas - care groups are saying no, councils are saying no and we are being ignored and our loved ones are #stilllockedaway we will not stop #rightsforresidents
hundreds of photographs from our #stilllockedaway gallery have been used to make this image - @Keir_Starmer @AngelaRayner @JonAshworth are all silent so who will shout out for us.....#rightsforeresidents

A month ago with a lot of fanfare @Helen_Whately, @MattHancock and @BorisJohnson announced with delight that we would all get to hug our loved ones again - the media were pushed out to watch a couple of lucky homes in the pilot scheme as they started testing relatives
and what have we learnt in that month - that Councils and Care Groups do not trust the tests. That screens are going up in care homes, that very few will even be allowed to visits let alone hug their loved ones this Christmas. Insurance is still a problem
That promises are made and then hopefully forgotten - but unlike many of our loved ones, young and old, who may not remember us any more we have not forgotten and will not forget. More #pointlesspilots are being done by councils - and so many still wait
