What does it mean to self-isolate

If you or/and your child have been told to self-isolate you should

• Not go to school, work or public places
• Not attend any other out of school activities or go around to a friends house
• Not use public transport or taxis
• Not go out to shop – order it online or ask a friend to bring it to your home
• Not have visitors in your home except for people providing essential care
• Not go out to exercise – exercise at home or in your garden, if you have one
• Inform GP practice or hospital or other healthcare setting that they are self-isolating if they must attend in person
