The enhanced testing programme will involve the twice weekly testing of asymptomatic care home staff using rapid lateral flow test devices.


This is in addition to the PCR tests, which are sent to a laboratory, currently undertaken by care home staff as part of a package of measures for preventing transmission of COVID\-19 in care homes and protecting residents and staff which has been operating since June 2020\.  

  

A £3 million funding package has been agreed to support additional testing in care homes.  

  

Health Minister Vaughan Gething said:



> “The protection of the most vulnerable people in our communities has been a priority during the COVID\-19 virus outbreak.  
> 
>   
> 
> “Care home staff, local authorities and health protection teams continue to work tirelessly to prevent the introduction and onward transmission of COVID\-19 in our care homes.   
> 
>   
> 
> “While we are making good progress with the roll\-out of our vaccination programme, testing remains pivotal in our response to the pandemic to help identify infectious individuals within care homes sooner and manage outbreaks more effectively.”


Local health protection teams will also be able to consider the introduction of daily testing for a period of 10 days in care homes where there is an outbreak. This enhanced testing is in line with the ‘test to safeguard’ priority described in the refreshed Welsh Government Testing Strategy.  

  

Lateral flow tests produce results within 20 to 30 minutes allowing for positive individuals to be identified and isolated much more quickly than through the current testing process.

Bydd y rhaglen brofi estynedig yn cynnwys profi staff cartrefi gofal asymptomatig ddwywaith yr wythnos gan ddefnyddio dyfeisiau profion llif unffordd cyflym.  

  

Mae hyn yn ychwanegol at brofion PCR, sy’n cael eu hanfon i labordy ac sy’n cael eu cymryd gan staff cartrefi gofal fel rhan o becyn o fesurau ar gyfer atal trosglwyddiad COVID\-19 mewn cartrefi gofal a diogelu preswylwyr a staff, ers mis Mehefin 2020\.  

  

Cytunwyd ar becyn cyllid o £3 miliwn i gefnogi’r profion ychwanegol mewn cartrefi gofal.  

  

Dywedodd y Gweinidog Iechyd Vaughan Gething:



> “Mae diogelu’r bobl fwyaf agored i niwed yn ein cymunedau wedi bod yn flaenoriaeth yn ystod y pandemig COVID\-19\.  
> 
>   
> 
> “Mae staff cartrefi gofal, awdurdodau lleol a thimau diogelu iechyd yn dal i weithio’n ddiflino i atal COVID\-19 rhag cyrraedd ein cartrefi gofal a throsglwyddo oddi mewn iddynt.   
> 
>

> “Er ein bod yn gwneud cynnydd da o ran cyflwyno ein rhaglen frechu, mae profi yn parhau i fod yn ganolog i’n hymateb i’r pandemig i’n helpu i adnabod unigolion heintus mewn cartrefi gofal yn gynt a rheoli achosion yn fwy effeithiol.”


Bydd timau diogelu iechyd lleol hefyd yn gallu ystyried cyflwyno profion dyddiol am gyfnod o 10 diwrnod mewn cartrefi gofal lle mae achosion. Mae’r cynllun profi estynedig hwn yn unol â’r flaenoriaeth ‘profi i ddiogelu’ a ddisgrifiwyd yn Strategaeth Brofi ddiweddaraf Llywodraeth Cymru.  

  

Mae profion llif unffordd yn rhoi canlyniadau o fewn 20 i 30 munud gan ein galluogi i adnabod unigolion positif, a’u hynysu’n llawer cyflymach na thrwy’r broses brofi bresennol.
