Visitors with Contagious Diseases

To help prevent the spread of infection it is very important that people who have infectious illnesses, such as chicken pox, a coldsore, flu, parvovirus (slapped cheek), a stomach upset, bad cough or cold, do not visit the hospital. These infections can be easily spread and some are particularly dangerous to pregnant women and newborn babies. Unfortunately, if the brothers and sisters of your newborn baby have any of these infections they must not visit you while you are in hospital.
