Visiting at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals is suspended with immediate effect and until further notice.
Only one visitor – an immediate family member or carer – will be permitted to visit, in the following circumstances:
• The patient you wish to visit is
receiving end-of-life care.
• You are the birthing partner accompanying a woman in labour.
• You are a parent or appropriate adult visiting your child.
Please contact the ward or department in advance to discuss appropriate arrangements.
Your health, safety and wellbeing, that of our patients, communities and individuals and teams across the organisation remain absolute priority.
Please find other ways of keeping in
touch with your loved ones in hospital, like phone and video calls.
Everyone should follow the expert national guidance on social distancing and
self-isolation, staying at home wherever possible, to help limit the spread of
coronavirus, protect the most vulnerable people in our communities and our NHS.
