New care home visiting guidance has been published today, which applies for the period of the national restrictions beginning 6 January 2021.
As per earlier guidance, you can still leave home to visit a care home if their visiting policy permits visits.
There is also more clarity around 'end of life' visits, referring to 'end of life' as meaning those who are in their last year of life, and the guidance states that visits should be enabled in the final months/weeks of life, not just the final days/hours:
