Pandemic Influenza Guidance for Homecare Providers

This page is povided for UKHCA members to obtain the Association's latest version of our information pack, "Pandemic Influenza Guidance for Homecare Providers".

The guidance has been produced as part of good practice contingency planning and we encourage providers to familiarise themselves with the information provided in this document. This document is provided as a service to UKHCA members and updates of the information will be available from this page.

Nobody – not even governments – knows whether a pandemic will happen in the next 10 years, or which strain of virus will be responsible if a pandemic occurs. Regardless of the timescale, the services of homecare providers will be essential for the wellbeing of service users and the ability of homecare workers to maintain their health and safety while working under exceptional circumstances.

Organisations may also be interested in UKHCA's Infection Control Pack which consists of a training guide, written exercises, overhead projector slides, glossary, answers to frequently asked questions on the UKHCA Helpline, and CD covering all parts of the package.
