Hi, My dad moved into a care home in my town a couple of months ago (he has been in residential care for the last 5 months).I've been visiting every day since he moved near me and he always smiles and waves when I walk in. This week the care home has been closed due to a sickness/diarrhoea bug. They said visitors could go in at their own risk. I've stayed away because I didn't want to pass on illness to my own family but feel really guilty about not seeing my dad and worrying about him! Just wanted reassurance that staying away is right thing to do.
