Visiting Information for Speciality Areas

Children's Wards (Paediatrics)

Parents and carers can remain with their child throughout the day and we encourage one parent to stay overnight from 8:00pm.

Siblings and other family members can visit between 1:00pm and 8:00pm (under 16 years old will not be permitted to visit without an adult present).

Please limit numbers to a maximum of four visitors at a time.

Due to the potential risk of infection, it is advised that parents or guardians bringing babies and children under the age of 5 to visit, discuss with the patients' allocated nurse beforehand.

 

Critical Care Units  

There is a Critical Care Unit at each of our acute hospital sites within CTM. Please click the links below for information about the CCU at each site:  

 

Maternity

We welcome parents to be present 24/7, and value their presence as an essential part of their baby’s care. Siblings of the baby are also welcome.

Extended family and friends aged 16 and over are invited to visit between 11:00am and 8:00pm. To ensure the comfort and safety of everyone in our limited space, we kindly ask that no more than three people are at the bedside at any one time – this includes at least one parent.

For the health and wellbeing of all our babies and families, we ask that visitors are free from colds or other illnesses and that everyone follows our hand-washing guidelines.
