Provide all NHS and Social Care staff with full PPE for every patient contact.

Allow staff the correct level of equipment by moving to a position when all direct patient care requires a fluid resistant face mask and face shield. This will offer more protection to patients and staff. Current advise only allows this when there is evidence of symptoms.

You may wish to sign this petition calling for the same action: Supply PPE to all Health and Social Care workers including community carers
