We have been informed that as the 31st of August it will not be appropriate for us at Castle and Costa to have regular COVID tests if we are asymptomatic. We have recently been stripped of our NHS login rights to register COVID tests online.

This may clash with the policies for some care homes but is unfortunately beyond our control.

As is happens, we have a few COVID tests left in stock and we have decided as a practice to get tested at least once a week. We will endeavor to take pictures of our negative tests to provide the necessary assurance to our patients at this time.
