We're pleased to announce that Longmead court is now open for new admissions

Unlike many care homes we took the decision not to take in any new residents or to accept any hospital admission while the risk of COVID 19 was at it's peak.

We're delighted to say that has meant we have been COVID free since the start of the outbreak.

With the reduction in new cases and the advent of widespeard testing we are now confident that we can reopen the home to new admissions under the following conditions.

• Your loved one will need to be tested as near to admission due date as possible. If the test proves positive admission will be delayed for at least seven days from the start of them displaying symptoms

• Upon admission your loved one will receive all the care and attention they would normally, however, they will be restricted to their room for the first 14 days. This is obviously for the safety of all concerned.

• Regular checks will be made in addition to the normal care plan to check for symptoms of COVID 19

We look forward to hearing from you!
