What the petition asks

Look into making a change to care home procedures during COVID so we can visit family in a safe environment

Why it was rejected

The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.

The Government published guidance on 4th November to support safe home care visits under the national restrictions taking effect from 5th November:

You could start a petition calling for specific changes to be made to this guidance, if there are specific changes you'd like to see happen.
