Should we stop going to people who don’t need essential care?

Posted: 27/03/2020

All providers should be prioritising the most vulnerable people, using the prioritisation tool which Devon County Council has circulated.

You will be advised when decisions are made to deprioritise individuals care and support. We also recognise that you may have to deprioritise individuals care and support to respond to staffing pressures in your own organisation.

If you have to implement such measures please advise us as soon as possible by emailing adultsc.adultcarehealthcovid19-mailbox@devon.gov.uk (24/3)
