However, to help protect the safety of our most vulnerable patients, Mark Wearing Zones have been introduced in some clinical areas.

Look out for our Mask Wearing Zone signs – they will tell you when you need to wear a mask in our hospital.

Anyone visiting the site is still welcome to wear a mask in any of our hospital buildings.

Mask wearing will remain under review.
