Following government guidance, we will be working both from home and Westmeria’s office when safe to do so, but rest assured this will not affect our service to you. However, due to the unprecedented number of emails and calls we are are receiving, it may take slightly longer for us to respond to you. With this in mind, please bear with us, but for all urgent issues, please email info@westmeriarecruitment.co.uk.

Following update during July/August2021, the government has provided further guidelines and information following the ease of the national lockdown further aimed dates below:

16th August 2021 -If you’re fully vaccinated or under 18, you will not need to self-isolate following close contact with someone who has COVID-19. You’ll still need to take a PCR test and self-isolate if it’s positive.

Please remember:

The most common symptoms of Coronavirus (COVID-19) are;

A high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature

A new continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual)

Loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – this means you've noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal

If you have any of the main symptoms above;

Visit the Government website to book yourself a PCR test. Test centres are now open 7 days a week and can also order online

Contact your local GP - To discuss your concerns and for further advice

Call 111 - if you are extremely worried about any of your symptoms, call this number to be able to get further guidance or assistance

Keep isolated - Until you have received your results, you and anyone you live with should isolate as much as possible

How to help prevent the spread of Coronavirus

Wash your hands more often than usual, for 20 seconds using soap and hot water, particularly after coughing, sneezing and blowing your nose, or after being in public areas where other people are doing so.
Use hand sanitiser if that’s all you have access to.
To reduce the spread of germs when you cough or sneeze, cover your mouth and nose with a tissue, or your sleeve (not your hands) if you don’t have a tissue, and throw the tissue away immediately. Then wash your hands or use a hand sanitising gel.
Clean and disinfect regularly touched objects and surfaces using your regular cleaning products to reduce the risk of passing the infection on to other people.
If you feel you cannot cope with your symptoms at home, or your condition gets worse, or your symptoms do not get better after 7 days, then use the coronavirus service. Alternatively, call NHS 111 or for a medical emergency dial 999
