We have been informed that two residents at Whiddon Moree have shown signs of respiratory symptoms. Each resident has had a Rapid Antigen Test and these have come back negative. PCR swabs have also been taken as a precaution.
Until we receive the results of these swabs, we have closed our care home at Whiddon Moree to visitors for now. Visitors are only permitted to visit a resident who is at the end of life or an essential carer. Please speak to your loved one’s Care Manager directly to gain the necessary approval to visit.
We are contacting the local Public Health Unit to seek further advice and are putting all necessary precautionary measures into place. Our robust COVID-19 management plan means that we have strict protocols in place to avoid spread of the virus across our care homes.
We are also committed to keeping you up-to-date of the situation and will provide a further update once we know more about the situation.
