Care home residents barred from voting in person by isolation guidance | The Wiltshire Gazette and Herald

Care home residents are being “effectively barred” from voting in person in the UK’s local elections by guidance that requires them to self-isolate for 14 days after leaving the home, a care group has said. Guidance from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) says any resident who leaves a care home in England must isolate for 14 days upon their return. The guidance states that this is to ensure that residents who may become unknowingly infected do not pass coronavirus to other residents and staff. But it says: “We recognise that in practice, this is likely to mean that many residents will not wish to make a visit out of the home.”
