Please do not visit relatives or friends if you are ill

Please can we remind you not to visit our hospital if you are unwell or have any respiratory illness, such as a cold or flu, signs and symptoms of Covid, or if you have symptoms such as diarrhoea and or vomiting.

We would ask that you do not visit for appointments or to visit relatives if you are unwell as this can lead to infections for often vulnerable patients, so please do not come in if you have cold, flu, Covid or norovirus symptoms – or if you have tested positive for Covid.

Please ensure you have been clear of any symptoms for at least 48 hours before visiting the hospital.

When you are visiting, please help prevent infection spread by washing your hands with soap and water when entering the hospital and before you leave the wards rather than just using hand sanitiser. Please can we ask that if you are visiting you do not sit on the patient’s bed or eat or drink at the bedside.

Please do not come in to visit patients if you don’t feel well yourself – thank you.
