Our 2021 COVID Statement

It still continues to be a critical time for the families of those who use our services at Rose Road and they need our support more than ever.

Whilst we have the hope that vaccinations bring, we remember there is still a long way to go and that this will not go away overnight.

We work in an environment where the virus can be highly transmissible, and our efforts to maintain COVID-safety must continue to be stringent.

We are also persisting with the need for regular testing for our staff. Some 180 tests are required to be carried out every week to help identify any asymptomatic cases.

We are committed to remaining open for our families for as long as it is safe to do so.

If we find ourselves in a position when it is no longer safe we will make the best judgement that we can, we follow Government guidance at all times and work closely with our funding commissioners in the Local Authorities to this end.

We are committed to playing our part in keeping the pressure on primary care services and the NHS down and to support our key workers and essential workers by providing additional care for their children where possible.

Our updated COVID risk assessments are published online.

As we head into a hopeful, but uncertain few weeks we pay tribute to our incredible, compassionate and brave frontline staff.

Being brave is not doing something big that doesn’t make you scared – it is coming to work to support those in need even when you are scared.
