Please understand that support people are not interchangeable and prepare in advance. Our staff are focused on providing our mums and families with specialised care, not policing visitors.

Our Special Care Nursery is restricted to allow access to only 2 visitors at a time. All visitors must be accompanied by either of the newborns parents. Please understand that newborns within our nursery require another level of specialised care. Restricting visitors, directly reduces any further delays, to these newborns journey to be reunited with their families.

Our Antenatal and Postnatal Unit visiting hours are 2.00pm to 4.00pm and 6.30pm to 8.00pm daily. In the best interest of our new mums, all visitors will be deterred outside of these hours. Please avoid disappointment, please plan your visiting around these times. Partners are welcome, up until 8.00pm daily

Bacteria are found on every surface you touch and can cause an infection in newborn babies, especially sick babies as their defence systems for fighting infection are not fully developed. All visitors are asked to wash their hands on entry to the nursery.

We also request that your visitors limit touching/handling of your baby. Unwell babies need as much rest as possible. Over handling can use up precious energy.
