PPE when caring for children with PMLD

Discussion
#1

I am concerned about the govt guidance for schools and carers, especially the absence of any mention of PPE when caring for children with PMLD. This is particularly relevant in special schools. It all seems to be a generic guidance for vulnerable children.

What matters? Summer issue of PMLD LINK

Hi @Murree

Is it the guidance published by the Government yesterday that you are referring to?

Thankyou for this; is there a survey of how many special schools are using Full PPE during personal care . As far as I am aware staff use gloves and aprons to change the vulnerable children attending schools at present.
