Visiting a Patient

Visitors play a significant role in a patient's recovery, but visits must not take precedence over treatment schedules and rest requirements. We recommend checking with the patient and/or nursing staff before visiting.

When visiting, please check in with a nurse or midwife at the ward station upon arrival. Please take note of signs or instructions on patients’ doors, and respect their need for care, rest and privacy.

For safety and security reasons, the hospital is secured between 8:00pm and 6:00am daily. Visits during these hours are permitted only under special circumstances and permission from hospital staff must be obtained in advance.

Please note: we cannot share details about a patient's condition with friends and family without the patient’s consent.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a comfortable and safe healing environment for all our patients.
