Visitors Protocol Amended 12/04/2021
At Eastleigh Care Home Group, we have developed a protocol for all visitors to follow to allow us to provide a Covid safe environment for you and our residents during your visits to the home. If you would like to visit Eastleigh Care Homes or services, we ask that you follow the instructions below.
o Please can you access the online visit booking system to secure a physical or virtual visiting session with the home, you will need an appointment to attend
o If you do not have access to the internet you can call the home and ask to speak to the receptionist between the hours of 9 am - 5 pm, Monday to Friday who will book an appointment for you
o Physical and virtual visiting will be in operation Monday to Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm
o There are obviously exceptions to these times, and this will need to be agreed by the Registered Manager depending on the circumstances and will be very limited and discretionary
o Visitors who arrive without an appointment will not be permitted to visit and will regrettably be asked to leave
o The booking slot is time specific; this will allow us to follow all procedures between visits such as cleaning the area before the next visitor arrives and completing LFD tests
o Each resident will be allowed two nominated visitors and they will be able to visit together or separately
o Once a resident is 3 weeks post their second Covid 19 vaccination the visit will be able to take place in their room subject to a negative Lateral Flow Device (LFD) test for the visitor and full PPE being worn
o We are still unable to provide refreshments at this moment in time and you are unable to bring refreshments with you for the visit
o If you are bringing belongings for your loved one, we ask that you hand it to a member of staff, to allow them to cleanse the items before they are shared with your loved one. Please do not share drinks with your relative during the visit or pass items between you. Please keep your visit to a social interaction only
o If you arrive early, please wait in your vehicle until your appointment. If you are late, you will only be given the time left for the appointment for that slot.
o Please come to the entrance on arrival and wait to be greeted
o Please always maintain social distancing for the interactions with our team
o When visiting please do not leave the residents room except when being escorted by a member of staff at the closure of your visit or for an emergency. We ask you to always respect this.
