Urgent advice: Service Update: Mask policy in clinical areas
Information:
Due to a Trust-wide increase in flu, covid and norovirus cases, mask-wearing has been reinstated for all staff and visitors in all clinical areas. Birthing people in labour, are exempt from mask wearing. Two birth partners are still permitted for support but they must be symptom-free.
We have taken the difficult decision to restrict visiting during the postnatal period. Birth partners can remain with one additional visitor. Only siblings over 12 years of age may visit the wards.
We thank you for your cooperation in keeping our patients safe.
