Cocoon Statement on COVID-19
At Cocoon, we are committed to protecting the health and well-being of our clients and professional care teams during the spread of COVID-19 across the UK. As the situation evolves, we are continually reviewing our procedures and are working closely with government and local health authorities to ensure our care services are delivered safely. In addition, all our service users have been risk rated based on their vulnerability. We know who our most vulnerable users are and will prioritise their care when appropriate.
