Our homes were among the first in the country to take part in the government’s care home testing programme in July 2020 – and we’ve been regularly testing colleagues and residents since.
- All care home colleagues are routinely tested twice every week.
- All residents are tested on admission to the home and then routinely.
With residents’ safety and wellbeing our absolute priority, we want to assure you that we’re doing everything possible to prevent coronavirus entering our homes.
We are pleased that care home residents and workers have been prioritised to be among the first to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
The roll-out to Anchor care homes is underway with vaccination teams coming into the home to administer the vaccine.
All new residents will also be prioritised for a vaccination on move-in.
Each of our homes is different so please speak to the care home manager once you have made an enquiry.

We understand how important visits are for everyone concerned and remain committed to them happening. Throughout the pandemic we’ve been doing everything we can to enable residents to see relatives and loved ones wherever it is safe, appropriate, and in line with Public Health England guidance.
Our teams have worked hard to facilitate visits in our gardens and external areas at some of our homes and, where full safety criteria has been met and local health protection advice permits, we now have an inside visiting space with a screen.
Of course, this is all subject to changes in government guidance and local lockdown restrictions.
We will always permit visits in exceptional circumstances.
