A major UK care home provider has said it is considering whether staff who have refused a vaccine for non-medical reasons can continue in roles where they are in contact with residents. Barchester Healthcare, which runs over 200 care homes in the UK said it is considering an option where staff make themselves “unavailable work” for not getting vaccinated. Some local care homes include Bushey House Beaumont Care Home, Chorleywood Beaumont, Southgate Beaumont, and Wilsmere House in Harrow Weald. The group had previously announced that it would not hire new staff if they had not had the vaccine for non-medical reasons, citing the vulnerability of its residents and patients.
