We hope that you are all well, and coping as well as you can with the situation at present.
As you are aware of from media reports that robust national and local plans are in place to manage the impact of Coronavirus. We are taking the necessary steps to prepare, in line with national guidance, working closely with Public Health and local NHS partners. We strongly advise that you follow government advice regarding social distancing and should, as far as possible, reduce/stop visits to the unit from people from outside and also socially distance from others in the unit.
We will be providing essential service to all our service users but:
- If service users would like to cancel their service for temporary basis they are most welcome to do so.
- Please inform us if you are self-isolating.
