Visiting bans in place at UHW and Dungarvan Community Hospital

Visiting bans in place at UHW and Dungarvan Community Hospital

University Hospital Waterford has advised that the public should not visit the hospital, unless absolutely critical, due to the current flu outbreak.

Meanwhile a full ban on visitors is in place at Dungarvan Community Hospital, in a bid to curb spread of the virus there.

Both facilities say the restriction is necessary in order to manage the risk to vulnerable patients of further exposure and to reduce the risk to the general public.

UHW are strongly discouraging children from visiting.
