Relatives of people who died in nursing homes during pandemic say covid inquiry ignoring bereaved families

Families whose relatives died in nursing homes during the pandemic have criticised the Covid-19 Evaluation for continuing to ignore their experiences.While the evaluation held its first public session with expert advisers and academics on Wednesday, it has yet to confirm dates for meeting with families. These were expected to begin in February.Care Champions, the advocacy group representing dozens of families, pointed out the family meetings are to be in private anyway.“There is a jarring contrast between the live roundtable for professionals and the private forums for families,” Majella Beattie,Founder of the Care Champion group, said Hosted on Acast.
