Funding
87% of Hertfordshire care providers have now made a claim to us for their first instalment of the Government Infection Control Fund which can only be used for staffing-related costs. This week HCC have written to all providers that are contracted by the County Council to extend the original offer of underwriting other Covid-related costs to the end of Sept 2020 (an additional two months).
