Norovirus - We are continuing to see high numbers of Norovirus cases within the community and across our hospital. Help us stop the spread of infection by following these simple steps:
- Avoid visiting loved ones unless necessary. Contact the ward for advice if needed.
- If you are attending an outpatient appointment or the Emergency Department please only bring 1 family member/friend with you if possible.
- Please avoid visiting the hospital if you are experiencing diarrhoea or vomiting, or if you have had these symptoms within the past 48 hours.
- Use our virtual visiting services and speak to your friend or family member by video call rather than visiting in person. Contact our Family Liaison Service -
Thank you for your support!
