Infection control

  • For the safety of our staff ad patients, it is absolutely vital that everyone who visits our hospital works hard to prevent the spread of germs.  The best way to do this is by washing your hands regularly, including before and after preparing or eating food.

    We also ask that you

    • use the hand sanitizer gel provided
    • wear a mask over both your mouth and nose
    • observe physical distancing where possible

    The staff caring for your child can give you more information about infection control procedures, infectious diseases and preventing the spread of germs.
