CCFTV was contacted by the Covid Public inquiry team to attend the Roundtable discussion on Wednesday 30 November alongside the CQC, Care England, Healthwatch England and the TUC to help shape the national listening exercise and discuss how we can appropriately commemorate those who have suffered hardship or loss as a result of the pandemic.
''We would like to invite you to a virtual roundtable discussion to help shape our national listening exercise and discuss how we can appropriately commemorate those who have suffered hardship or loss as a result of the pandemic.
We are keen to engage with a wide range of organisations to help shape the exercise and allow for the broadest possible participation.
We feel that the experience and expertise of organisations with direct experience supporting and/or representing frontline workers are particularly valuable as part of this process and we hope your organisations will be able to participate.'' Public Inquiry Team
CCFTV was one of the first care organisations to call for a public inquiry on handling care homes during the Covid pandemic at the start of April 2020.
CCFTV would urge the Covid-19 public enquiry scope to include a review and assessment of the impact of repeated lockdowns on the mental health and well-being of care home residents, their families and the very many staff who had to witness high levels of resident demise.
We believe many in those groups are still traumatised as a result of witnessed events, often because of the needless loss of a loved one who remained in isolation due to the unnecessary exclusion of a family member. Residents died without any comfort of family, without anyone independently assessing the care service they received and without knowing if any other contributing factors existed.
It is also important that the review panel determine what actions and systems need to be mandated in care homes to ensure that in any future pandemic crisis their loved ones can be remotely monitored. CCFTV accepted the invitation to join the Roundtable in November 2022
