Coronavirus guidance for carers

Posted on: 12 March 2020

Do you provide unpaid care and support to a family member or friend who is ill, frail, disabled or has mental health or addiction problems?

If you are worried that you or someone you look after may have the coronavirus, NHS 111 can offer direct guidance via the NHS 111 website.

Even if you are not showing symptoms, it's important to use this service if you’ve been in close contact to someone with the virus or if you’ve been to one or more of the places listed on the NHS website in the last 14 days.

For the latest information about coronavirus (covid-19) and carers, you can visit the dedicated page on the Carers UK website at:
