Flu and COVID-19 infections are increasing in our hospitals and communities

We are asking the public to help protect themselves, our patients and our staff by taking simple steps to reduce the spread of infection by:

  • Wearing a mask when entering our wards
  • Washing your hands thoroughly before entering and after leaving our wards
  • Using hand gel regularly during your visit to our hospitals
  • Covering your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, disposing of tissues in a bin and washing your hands afterwards - Catch it, Bin it, Kill it
  • Do not visit patients if you have any symptoms of Flu or COVID-19

Martha's Rule - Call for Concern

Martha’s Rule is a patient safety initiative to support the early detection of deterioration by ensuring the concerns of patients, families, carers and staff are listened to and acted upon.
