COVID-19: Swabbing Employee Consent Form

It is expected that all care homes in the UK are now testing for COVID-19 even if they don’t have a symptomatic employee or resident. However, there are concerns over the lack of training by local care staff and increasing responsibilities on top of all the work they are doing.

QCS have produced a Guide to Swabbing and an accompanying Swabbing Consent Form (opens new window) to ensure you and your staff can take swabs confidently knowing that you’re compliant and following procedures correctly.

The consent form includes:

  1. employee statement
  2. employee consent
  3. employee reference form
