Information for visitors

In order to keep our patients and staff safe during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we have restricted access to all our sites in line with the national NHS guidance:

  • Only patients, staff and essential services (e.g. deliveries) are allowed.
  • No visitors are allowed, including family members/carers, other than exceptional circumstances agreed in advance.

We are sorry that we cannot allow visitors at this time and hope you will appreciate that we are doing it to keep people safe and reduce the risk of coronavirus transmission as far as possible. This is especially important for people with cancer and those caring for them.

For further help, support and guidance, please speak to the Nurse or team leader in charge.
