| Impact of COVID-19 on average bed occupancy | Data not provided | Closed one floor to be able to isolate floors and staff if had outbreak, so only had 26 rooms available from July 2020. | Zero impact. Although the number of beds offered is 45, this has been since January 2021, prior to that it was 44. | Significant reduction in occupancy over a period of a month during the first outbreak. This then took almost 12 months to fully recover. | Due to the impact of COVID-19, 16 beds were made unavailable from June 2020. From that period, the percentage is occupancy based on the number of beds available rather than number of registered beds. | No severe impact on bed vacancies. They have always stayed at a high level. |

| Did the CH procure and carry out private testing for staff? | Yes – staff have their PCR tests every week and have LFTs twice a week | Yes – antibody testing | No | No | No | No |
| When did lateral flow testing for staff commence? | 4 January 2021 | 1 December 2020 | 1 September 2021 | 13 August 2020 | 23 December 2020 | December 2020 |
| When did the vaccine programme for staff start? | Some staff travelled to a hospital for their vaccine and the first appointment was on 17 December 2020. The majority of staff were vaccinated at the home on 16 January 2021 | 31 December 2020 | 1 January 2021 | 11 March 2021 | Data not provided | 5 December 2020 |
| What percentage of CH staff have been vaccinated? | 85% of staff have received first vaccine. Out of the remaining staff, three have been booked in to have their vaccine, three staff cannot have the vaccine, three staff are on maternity leave and the remaining two staff have declined. | 98% | 98% plus three staff clinically exempt | 100% | 88% | 100% |
| How has testing of visitors to the CH been managed? | At the moment, we are open to essential appointments and booked visits for the residents (visitors are from the nominated persons list). All visits are pre-arranged, and visitors are informed that they are to arrive half an hour before their scheduled time and report to a member of staff. At this point, we then ask them to complete the necessary paperwork and an LFT test then they are to await the results. As long as the result is negative, the visit can continue. With regard to professional visiting, if the visitors are from an organisation that complete LFT testing at home, they must show proof of a negative test that has been completed within the last 72 hours; if they are unable to provide this evidence, then they are to follow the guidance for completing the LFT testing within the home. | Data not provided | This has involved a lot of time with weekly PCR testing for all staff, twice weekly LFT testing for all staff, four weekly PCR testing for residents. Once visiting opened up again, all visitors are required to have a LFT, they then have to wait for 30 minutes and if the result is negative, they are then able to visit. Any professionals visiting the home also have to either have a negative LFT that is taken here or need to provide a negative result taken no longer than 30 minutes prior to coming to the home. Our hairdresser has been back for 8 weeks now, she takes part in the staff weekly PCR testing and has to have an LFT, again with a negative result, prior to starting work on the day she comes. The registration of all tests is very time consuming, with the website regularly crashing, and this can take several hours per day. Then starts the anxiety of waiting for the PCR results to come through. | Testing station set up in the village for testing to be carried out on all visitors. Relatives were asked to attend 30 minutes before a scheduled visit so that a LFT could be carried out by a member of staff. Records of the test were kept for 21 days before being destroyed. | Data not provided | Data not provided |
