Norovirus,听also known as the winter vomiting bug,听is prevalent in our community, with the potential for patients to be admitted with symptoms of diarrhoea and /or vomiting. Norovirus can spread very quickly and cause significant disruption to the day-to-day management of our hospital鈥檚 wards and departments.
听
We are asking for all of community鈥檚 support in helping to reduce the spread of this infection.
We ask that visitors don't come into hospital if they have had diarrhoea and/or vomiting in the last 48 hours. Our staff will ask visitors to wash their hands with soap and water when they come into a ward. Remember that alcohol gels have limited effectiveness against Norovirus.
Thank you for your support.
