No Visiting For Adult In-Patients
Across the Trust’s sites in Doncaster, Worksop and Mexborough there will be no visiting for adult inpatients unless in extenuating circumstances such as patients receiving end-of-life care or those with complex needs. Maternity and paediatrics services are not currently affected by this change and local residents are advised to check the Trust’s website for further updates: https://www.dbth.nhs.uk/patients-visitors/
The change comes following a review by senior health professionals at DBTH as active cases of coronavirus amongst inpatients at the Trust nears 100 and community rates continue to increase.
