Introduction

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) have amended the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 so that, from

11 November 2021,

all care home workers and other visiting professionals will need to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, unless they have an exemption or there is an emergency.

The changes affect those who are registered to provide care under the regulated activity of ‘accommodation for persons who require nursing or personal care’.
