Information for day service providers
Though it is recognised that the UK has removed enforced restrictions in place at the height of the pandemic, this does not mean that infections and serious health complications are no longer occurring.
To ensure staff and individuals attending your service are kept safe, Norfolk County Council advises providers to ensure risk assessments and the latest government guidance are reviewed and updated where necessary. Should changes occur, it is advised to communicate with individuals, families and carers who may be experiencing anxiety regarding the impact of COVID-19.
