Visitors and Safety
Visitors, relatives and friends are very welcome to
visit the residents in the nursing home, bearing in mind that if a
resident is being assisted in their activities of daily living at the time
of the visit, a short wait may be required as procedures are carried out
in privacy and with dignity.
There are no restrictions on hours of
visiting, but
it is desirable that residents in multi-purpose rooms do not have visitors
after 9.00pm as this may disturb other residents.
When visiting, please ensure the door is closed
securely when entering and leaving the building.
