Very long thread, with new guidance out, few care groups have updated their websites, from what we can see on their written guidance - mostly they are still requiring appointments, some are mentioning testing, some are very out of date. Let us know what your group is up to #rfr
First up #PorthavenCareGroup lots of talk of booking appointments - let us hope it is out of date #rfr porthaven.co.uk/visit-a-reside…
Next up @Bondcare1 - not updated since march 2021 - does not reflect well surely? #rfr
bondcare.co.uk/news/bondcare-…
Again, we hope the website has not been updated to reflect the latest infection @HallmarkCare #rfr
hallmarkcarehomes.co.uk/faq/are-care-h…
We believe @HC_One have updated their guidance..... looks like you still need an appointment, even tho the guidance does not say it is necessary #rfr
flipsnack.com/kindcare/safe-…
For the first time @Barchester_care are leading the way in their interpretation, no booking, no testing - credit were it is due and they got their website dated quickly #rfr

freedom for all - except care homes - here are some of the “freedoms” still in place this morning - will there be a change in guidance? rolling lockdowns continue @GillianKeegan @sajidjavid and are you really going to bring in a “pay per view” really? #rfr
As mask wearing goes - full PPE remains - right or wrong? But why such a difference from seeing family in different homes - a home setting nothing a (care) home setting - mask, gloves and aprons still required #rfr Image
We still need to be tested - makes sense, for now, but are we now going to be charged a “pay per view” tax to see our loved ones? Most homes let families test at home now so - will we have to pay? @GillianKeegan #rightsforresidents Image

2021 was a year many of us will remember, probably for the wrong reasons. A total lockdown that had started in March 2020, care homes had never really opened up and for most, window visits were the best we could hope for - horrific (thread following!) #rightsforresidents
We were invited to join @leicesterliz at an online meeting she set up for families, to learn more about the situation, hear what people were experiencing first hand and gave all an opportunity to talk openly #rightsforresidents
We have had a second meeting in the early part of 2021 with @Helen_Whately #essentialcaregiver status was discussed, two our members joined us to share their personal stories - #essentialcaregiver would first appear in the guidance in March #rightsforresidents

Who is doing what with regards to #essentialcaregiver status. Who is promoting, what does it mean?
In March @NCFCareForum put out a joint post with ourselves and have been actively pushing for fairer visiting ever since - thank you #rightsforresidents socialcare.blog.gov.uk/2021/03/30/par…
The @CareEngland 'charity' & @ProfMartinGreen make noises about #essentialcaregiver but until the recent change in guidance most of their members have been very reluctant to follow it, why? they have denied their 'customers' their basic #humanrights #rightsforresdients
We hope @NationalCareAsc would follow #essentialcaregiver guidance but on @BBCBreakfast their vice president talks of pods/screens for a single case - ECG can still visit during an outbreak (2+cases) do they not allow the guidance? #rightsforresidents

The top 30 celebrated their year in social care last night with @CareTalkMag and @CareEngland. We hope all had a great night - @GillianKeegan the following thread may show you where #guidanceisnotworking #rightsforresidents
A brief monthly summary of the website review of the board members of @CareEngland companies and whether they are promoting #essentialcaregiver @CareQualityComm @KateTerroni was up for an award so hope you will read this and follow up asking why some are not #rfr
@Wellburncare hmmm no change from months ago - no ECG, promotes pods and 5 named visitors - that changed in JULY! #rightsforresidents wellburncare.co.uk/staying-safe

Today we are going to look at some of the current guidance that every care home resident/family/friend has to go follow (if they are lucky) - does any other part of society have 20 pages of who and how you can see your loved one? Time to revisit @GillianKeegan @sajidjavid #rfr
You might be allowed to hold hands but it come with risks.... they would rather you didn't, but if you do, keep it brief @MattHancock this was in place when you were in charge as well #rightsforresidents
At the end of the day it is all just guidance, it does not have to be followed, this is what we have found and care home providers/managers have the final say - many do - many really don't #rightsforresidents

Long thread. Today we are looking at the websites/visiting policies of those care providers who are on the board of @CareEngland - we mentioned this when we met with @ProfMartinGreen a couple of months ago. Very little appears to have changed. #rightsforresidents
We know there was an interesting discussion on #Essentialcaregiver last Friday hosted by @CPA_SocialCare attended by many including @NCFCareForum @CQCProf will it actually make any difference - @GillianKeegan good morning and welcome DMs open #rightsforresidents
We shall start with @Wellburncare no mention of #Essentialcaregiver and promoting pod/screened visits - 18 months on, Why? #rightsforresidents
