Y dull arferol ddylai fod asesu risgiau lleol ac unigol, gan osgoi dulliau cyffredinol a chydnabod y gwahaniaeth o berygl oddi wrth COVID-19 i breswylwyr oedrannus o’i gymharu â’r risg i blant. Gan y darparwr unigol y mae’r penderfyniad yn y pen draw o ran caniatáu ymweliadau i’r cartref gofal ac o dan ba amgylchiadau, ac rydym yn deall y bydd rhai darparwyr yn ei chael yn fwy heriol i hwyluso ymweliadau nag eraill. Fodd bynnag, bwriad y canllawiau hyn yw cefnogi darparwyr i alluogi ymweliadau, ac rydym yn disgwyl ac yn annog darparwyr i hwyluso ymweliadau pan fo modd. Mae canllawiau mwy manwl am gynnal asesiadau risg yn cael eu datblygu.
The general approach should be one of local and individual risk assessment, with blanket approaches being avoided and acknowledging the difference in risk for elderly residents compared with the risk to children from COVID-19. The ultimate decision on whether, and in what circumstances care home visits take place rests with the individual provider, and we understand that some providers will find it more challenging to facilitate visits than others. However this guidance is intended to support providers to enable visits to take place, and we expect and encourage providers to facilitate visits wherever possible.  More detailed guidance on undertaking risk assessments is under development.
