At Baillieston Community Care, the health, safety and wellbeing of our service users, and staff is of paramount importance. As older people are particularly vulnerable to COVID-19, we want to reassure our staff and the service users we care for that we are monitoring the situation closely to help manage risks of spreading the virus.
Our staff are professionally trained and undergo comprehensive training in infection control, and we have also advised them to follow industry guidance on hygiene from the UK’s Public Health Authorities and World Health Organisation, particularly focussed around handwashing and other hygiene measures.
We will continue to follow direction provided by the UK’s Public Health Authorities and World Health Organisation and keep a close eye on the situation, working closely with organisations such as the Care Inspectorate, Scottish Care and other care providers.
As CEO of Baillieston Community Care, I’m committed to ensuring that our service users can remain safe and cared for at home throughout this challenging time.
Please do not hesitate to contact me or a member of my team should you have any concerns.
Best regards
David Reilly, CEO
