"It's made the prisoners kinder to each other": How Jersey's prison has stayed Covid-free
Just over 12 months ago when Jersey entered lockdown, life at HMP La Moye changed.
All staff and prisoners were required to wear face masks and physical visits from friends and family of inmates stopped.
Like elsewhere in the community the pandemic forced the prison community to adapt.
Visits and medical appointments moved to video calls and the daily schedule changed to allow for smaller groups of inmates to alternate between work and recreation.
The biggest threat for the virus entering the prison community came from staff who were were given temperature checks on arrival, and most recently have had regular lateral flow tests.
Despite the measures, in November last year nearly a third of the workforce was in self-isolation after one member of staff tested positive.
There have also been some positive changes brought about by the pandemic. The relationship between staff and inmates is said to have improved thanks to mutual respect and cooperation.
The change in regime has also resulted in prisoners spending more time out of their cells and finding new employment, including making face masks.
In recent weeks physical visits for prisoners have restarted, albeit behind screens and without physical contact.
The vaccination programme is advancing behind the prison walls for both staff and inmates with 95% of prisoners in the eligible groups vaccinated as part of phase 1 and around 80% have signed up to be vaccinated in phase 2.
