Still coming to terms with the guilt of putting my father into care just before Christmas. Haven't visited him since the 23rd as have been unwell with a nasty stomach bug (possible food poisoning from a family party!). Just received this from the home:
Unfortunately following a second member of staff returning a positive Covid test in the last few days I write to inform you that <the care home> is now classed by Public Health England (PHE), as being in an outbreak status. As a result of this disappointing news all visits and admission to the Home will be suspended with immediate effect.
They were in the process of upgrading their WiFi but the contractors have succumbed to the virus too... guess I'll have to write him a letter.
I know this isn't new to many of you but it's the first time for me.
Keep safe everybody!
