Visiting Consultation - Care Home Residents

As you will be aware, the DHSC currently have a public consultation open on visiting in health and care settings, which will be open until 16th August (and 23 August for the easy read). The links to these are below:

•  Full consultation: https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/visiting-in-care-homes-hospitals-and-hospices

• Easy read: https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/visiting-in-care-homes-hospitals-and-hospices-easy-read

 They are really keen to ensure that they hear the views of care home residents as part of this consultation – having looked at the figures the number of individuals who are care home residents is currently quite low.

Any responses to these can be sent to visting@dhsc.gov.uk.
