Visitors' protocol - CPA briefing for care providers

The Care Provider Alliance, has reviewed and updated its Visitors’ Protocol (opens new window) to reflect but not duplicate updated official guidance and to provide practical examples of how care services can open up the home more regularly in a way which is safe and proportionate to their localised understanding of risk.

The Government has announced that from 8 March 2021, care homes can permit one regular visitor per resident.

Further details and guidance are due to be published. The CPA will review and update this document when this is available.
