One In, One Out

Manx Care has changes its policy to allow one visitor per patient into A&E at Noble’s Hospital and the Minor Injuries Unit at Ramsey District Cottage Hospital.

This, as well as other changes, come into effect immediately.

In addition to this change, Manx Care is permitting one visitor per patient to the Eric and Marion Scott Oncology Unit. The visiting policies in other departments and wards remain unchanged.

Manx Care said: ‘Although prior arrangement of visiting is not required, we do ask that a maximum of two people visit these other wards and departments at one time.

‘The utmost care and consideration must still be given to the safety of other patients and staff, by maintaining infection prevention and control procedures at all times.  Please do not visit someone in hospital if you feel unwell yourself, and do not visit someone in hospital if you have tested positive for Covid in the last ten days.’
