In this first episode of the Talking Care Podcast, we discuss the impact of COVID on the care sector, on residents, staff and families, and in particular the difficult issues around facilitating visits in care settings during the pandemic and the impact of social isolation on residents.
To help us explore these issues and share their perspectives and insights, we are joined by Professor June Andrews, a world-leading expert in dementia care, Geoff Butcher, CEO of the care home group Blackadder Corporation and Geert Houben, co-founder and CEO of Cubigo, a platform that digitises non-clinical services in senior living communities.
