Safeguarding our community during Covid-19
Safeguarding our community during Covid-19
In line with HSE guidelines all visitors to our care homes will need to provide proof of vaccination status / immunity upon entry.
Bartra Healthcare was founded on the principles of world-class care of older person and community and we remain true to these values in this time of emergency.
Our community will always be our priority and we will be focused on the safety and wellbeing of our residents and their loved ones, our staff, and our healthcare partners, at all times. We are committed to the highest standards of care. Since the CV-19 crisis began to emerge we have been liaising closely with the relevant health authorities and infection control experts. Some of the measures we are taking to reduce the risks in our facilities include:
– We have a dedicated steering group closely monitoring and following the guidance from the HSE and Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC). We commit to regular and proactive communication with our community as the situation evolves.
– All of our staff partake in regular testing for Covid 19 on a fortnightly basis to ensure residents safety is maximised.
– Our staff wear PPE (Personal Protective Clothing) such as gloves, aprons, and masks for all interactions with residents deemed at risk.
– Residents are encouraged to self-isolate in their bedrooms for 14 days after admission in so far as possible.
– All of our staff are fully trained in the required infection control measures.
– All resident’s temperature, pulse, and respiratory rates are monitored daily, or more often if required, to help identify early indicators of CV-19.
– Our GP partners are onsite a minimum of three times per week for further monitoring and referral if required.
– We have divided our care home wings, and our staff, into self-contained units to help prevent the risk of cross infection.
– There is a comprehensive cleaning schedule in place for all areas in line with best practice.
