Coronavirus Update

8 January 2021

Visiting Broadleigh

We are extremely concerned about the impact that rising cases in Peterborough could have on our residents.

All visiting pod visits and garden and window visits are suspended until further notice.

Visits are only available in circumstances where the resident is approaching end of life.

We recognise this is not easy, and is another hurdle that we all have to overcome to return to normality.

We will be reviewing the situation again at the end of January.

Vaccination News

Many of our staff have started to receive the vaccine and each day we are getting more news of when others will receive theirs.

We have also received clarification that resident vaccinations will start this month.

This gives us great optimism for the return to normality, and we ask that you just bear with us for this period as we continue to keep your loved ones safe.

Thank you all for your support.

Please all stay safe.

Amar Marjara
Director
