Visiting times
Family and friends are welcome to visit the unit during open visiting hours. The ward runs a therapeutic group programme and set mealtimes, so we would ask that any visits are arranged out with these times. Open times are:
Monday – Friday 7 – 8pm
Weekends – 3.45 – 4.45pm and 7 – 8pm
Patients book rooms for visits ahead of time so it helpful for them to know in advance who is visiting and when.
There is flexibility for patients on bed rest, visitors travelling long distances and patients with young children. We ask that the patient and families speak with the team regarding their needs and the team will do their best to accommodate without compromising the patient’s treatment programme.
