Visitor Guidelines

At the NRH, we are committed to maintaining the highest possible standard of hygiene throughout the hospital.

Visitors can help us in reducing the risk of infection by:

• regular hand-washing or using the hand gel provided. Signs are in place to show the correct hand washing technique.

• not visiting if they are feeling unwell as they may present a risk of infection to you and to others. For example, if they have a cold, diarrhoea, vomiting, chicken pox or other such illnesses, they should not come to the hospital until at least 3 days after they feel better.

• not sitting or lying on patient beds.

• using public toilets, as patient toilets are for patient use only.

• not bringing in food from outside the hospital. For special dietary requirements, please discuss with the treating team.

• watching out for information displayed around the hospital at times when infections are prevalent in healthcare settings or in the community, for example Flu, ‘Winter Vomiting Bug’, and other types of flu and viruses.

• following guidance on restricted visiting, mask-usage and other public health guidance at times of infection outbreaks or pandemic situations.

• placing litter or refuse in the bins and recycle bins provided throughout the hospital and its grounds.

If children are visiting relatives, they must be supervised
at all times.
