The public is reminded that mask wearing is mandatory in clinical spaces at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH), including the Accident and Emergency Department, Outpatient Clinics, the Pharmacy, QEH Wards, patient rooms, treatment areas, and any spaces where clinical care is provided. This is to ensure the health and safety of patients, visitors, and staff.
Masks are a crucial measure to protect against the spread of infections and to safeguard everyone within the facility.
The QEH encourages all visitors and patients to observe general personal protection practices. This includes:
• Regular hand washing or use of hand sanitiser
• Maintaining physical distancing, where possible
• Following any additional guidelines provided by hospital staff.
Management of the QEH thanks members of the public for their cooperation and adherence to these measures, which are vital in helping to maintain a safe and healthy environment for all.
