Visiting a Patient

Visitors are welcome any time. If you are planning a morning visit we recommend that you call the ward before hand, as this is a particularly busy time. Also, please understand that patients may be called in for treatment during your visit so please bear with us.

Some wards do have restrictions on patient visits for health and safety and clinical reasons. So please check with the nurse before entering a ward. You should also let the nurse know if children wish to visit or a visitor is pregnant so that we can accommodate you properly.

If you have a cold or are unwell, it might be wise to postpone your visit. This is because many of our patient's immune systems aren't strong.
