On 15 December Welsh Government published its four alert levels which sets out what members of the public can expect to experience at each alert level as we continue to deal with coronavirus in Wales. The plan sets out in detail how national measures will be introduced depending on the progress of coronavirus across Wales, including how and when there will be movement between these levels.


The following four levels that have been introduced are:


* **Level 1/Low Risk**: This represents the level of restriction closest to normality which are possible while infection rates are low and preventative measures in place.
* **Level 2/Medium Risk**: This includes additional controls to limit the spread of coronavirus. These may be complemented by more targeted local restrictions put in place to manage hotspots or specific incidents or outbreaks.
* **Level 3/High Risk:** These represent the strictest restrictions short of a firebreak or lockdown. This responds to higher or rising level of infections where local actions are no longer effective in containing the growth of the virus.
* **Level 4/Very High Risk:** Restrictions at this level would be equivalent to the ‘firebreak’ regulations or lockdown. These could either be deployed as a ‘firebreak’ by doing so in advance, or as an emergency ‘lockdown’ measure if advance notice is not possible


We have agreed a detailed control plan for social care in Wales that will assist social care services and the public in understanding the measures to expect at each level so that they can continue to protect the most vulnerable individuals in Wales.


For each of the levels, all social care staff, and the healthcare staff that support social care services, should be using effective infection prevention measures including social distancing, hand hygiene, correct and appropriate use of PPE. The plan also sets out the testing that should be in place for staff, how to minimise the risk when allowing visitors and external care staff into the home and how visitors and external care staff should managed.


The plan has been developed in collaboration with Local Authorities, Health Boards, PHW and other key stakeholders, ensuring that not only the risks to individuals are minimised but also the rights of individuals are considered when applying measures.


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.


The implementation of recommendations contained within the control plan relating to the routine testing of social care staff that are not currently part of an existing programme is in development and further details will follow.


This statement is being issued during recess in order to keep members informed. Should members wish us to make a further statement or to answer questions on this when the Senedd returns we would be happy to do so.

Ar 15 Rhagfyr cyhoeddodd Llywodraeth Cymru ei phedair lefel rhybudd sy’n nodi’r hyn y gall aelodau’r cyhoedd ei ddisgwyl ar bob lefel rybudd wrth inni barhau i ymdopi â’r coronafeirws yng Nghymru. Mae’r cynllun yn manylu ar sut y cyflwynir mesurau cenedlaethol gan ddibynnu ar gynnydd y coronafeirws ledled Cymru, gan gynnwys sut a phryd y bydd symud rhwng y lefelau hyn.


Y pedair lefel a gyflwynwyd yw:


* **Lefel 1/Risg Isel**: Dyma’r lefel cyfyngiadau agosaf at normalrwydd sy’n bosibl tra mae cyfraddau heintio yn isel a mesurau ataliol eraill ar waith.
* **Lefel 2/Risg Ganolig**: Mae’r lefel hon yn cynnwys mesurau rheoli ychwanegol i gyfyngu ar ledaeniad y coronafeirws. Gall y rhain gael eu hategu gan gyfyngiadau lleol wedi’u targedu’n fwy, a roddir ar waith i reoli mannau problemus o ran yr haint neu achosion lluosog neu frigiadau penodol.
* **Lefel 3/Risg Uchel**: Dyma’r cyfyngiadau llymaf heblaw am gyfnod atal byr neu gyfnod clo. Mae’n ymateb i lefelau heintio uwch neu gynyddol lle nad yw camau gweithredu lleol yn effeithiol mwyach o ran cyfyngu ar dwf y feirws.
* **Lefel 4/Risg Uchel Iawn**: Byddai cyfyngiadau ar y lefel hon yn cyfateb i reoliadau’r cyfnod atal byr neu’r cyfnod clo. Gellid defnyddio'r rhain naill ai fel cyfnod atal byr drwy weithredu ymlaen llaw, neu fel mesur cyfnod clo brys os nad yw rhybudd ymlaen llaw yn bosibl.


Rydym wedi cytuno ar gynllun rheoli manwl ar gyfer gofal cymdeithasol yng Nghymru a fydd yn cynorthwyo gwasanaethau gofal cymdeithasol a’r cyhoedd i ddeall y mesurau i’w disgwyl ar bob lefel fel y gallant barhau i ddiogelu’r unigolion mwyaf agored i niwed yng Nghymru.


Ar gyfer pob un o’r lefelau, dylai pob aelod o staff gofal cymdeithasol, a staff gofal iechyd sy’n cynorthwyo gwasanaethau gofal cymdeithasol, ddefnyddio mesurau atal heintiau effeithiol gan gynnwys cadw pellter cymdeithasol, hylendid dwylo, a defnydd cywir a phriodol o gyfarpar diogelu personol. Mae’r cynllun hefyd yn nodi’r math o brofi a ddylai fod ar gael i staff, sut i leihau’r risg wrth ganiatáu i ymwelwyr a staff gofal allanol ddod i mewn i’r cartref, a sut y dylid rheoli ymwelwyr a staff gofal allanol.


Datblygwyd y cynllun mewn cydweithrediad ag Awdurdodau Lleol, Byrddau Iechyd, Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru a rhanddeiliaid allweddol eraill, gan sicrhau nid yn unig bod y risgiau i unigolion yn cael eu lleihau ond hefyd bod hawliau unigolion yn cael eu hystyried wrth gymhwyso mesurau.  


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.


Mae’r broses o weithredu’r argymhellion yn y cynllun rheoli sy’n ymwneud â chynnal profion arferol ar gyfer staff gofal cymdeithasol, nad ydynt ar hyn o bryd yn rhan o raglen brofi, wrthi’n cael ei datblygu a chyhoeddir manylion pellach yn y man.


Cyhoeddir y datganiad hwn yn ystod y toriad er mwyn rhoi gwybod i aelodau. A fydd aelodau am inni wneud datganiad arall neu ateb cwestiynau am hwn pan fydd y Senedd yn dychwelyd, byddwn yn ei wneud â phleser.
