Cancellation of "declaration" in 39 prefectures Guidelines for restarting visits at nursing homes New Corona May 15 5:15
In response to the decision to cancel the emergency declaration in 39 prefectures other than Tokyo and Osaka, a national group of nursing homes announced future response guidelines regarding visits to families.
In order to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, the National Council for the Elderly Welfare Facilities, which is made up of nursing homes nationwide, has sought to ban visits with family members, including users during the Mitori period, in principle. Since it was decided to cancel the emergency declaration in the region, we announced the future response guidelines.
As a result, in the area where the declaration was released, only for users in the harvest period, if the person was not infected with the new coronavirus and the health condition of the family they visited was not abnormal, It is also possible to approve visits.
On the other hand, in principle, we continue to request that users, except during the Mitori period, and areas where an emergency situation continues to be banned from visiting in principle.
Akira Hiraishi, chairman of the National Council for the Elderly Welfare Facilities, said, `` I was sorry about the fact that I would like to make up for my family's wish to meet the users who are in the middle of the dead period when they do not know when they will die. I am very grateful for the cancellation of the emergency declaration in accordance with .. The elderly have a basic illness, so they should never loosen, and keep in mind the possibility of the second and third waves coming, I would like to keep in mind the correspondence based on. "
