Visiting
Continuing care:
Daytime visiting hours are unrestricted and visitors are welcome to call in at any time.
We
do, however, secure the front door from 8pm, or earlier due to darkness
in the winter, so please ring the bell if you arrive after this time.
Night
time security of the building is important for both the residents and
staff, with a security service providing night time checks.
Birthing Unit:
Visitors are welcome, however, we usually request no visiting between
12noon-2pm and 5-6pm to allow for an undisturbed rest period.
