Protect yourself from winter vomiting virus

Updated 11 March, 2010

During the winter, viruses such as the winter vomiting bug (norovirus) become more common and spread more easily.

 

Please help us to protect our patients by not visiting the hospital if you have had sickness and diarrhoea in the last 48 hours.

 

Visiting

  • Visiting times on all adult wards are currently restricted to 3pm-5pm and from 7pm-8pm

  • A maximum of two adult visitors per patient are allowed at any one time

  • Children should not visit the hospital unless it is for exceptional circumstances ie compassionate reasons

If you are planning to see someone in hospital please ring first to check that their ward is open. You can contact us on 01223 245 151

 

Protecting yourself from winter vomiting bug

The best way to protect yourself from this virus is to wash your hands thoroughly and regularly with soap and water.
