Worcestershire Royal Hospital Wards
Worcestershire Royal Hospital is made up of several buildings. Wards are located in the main hospital building and Aconbury East.
Visiting times
We have returned to an open visiting policy across our hospitals. This means that up to two visitors at a time will be welcome to visit patients between 10am and 10pm, seven days a week.
Please note that this policy applies to all adult acute inpatient areas. Separate visiting guidance remains in place in paediatrics, maternity, critical care and high dependency units so please check with the staff in these areas before you visit these areas.
Arrangements can always be made for visitors travelling long distances or where it is difficult to see patients within the above times - please speak to your nurse about this.
The number of visitors allowed around a patient's bed at a time is usually no more than two people. This is to ensure patients do not become unduly tired and for health and safety reasons. It is sensible to avoid bringing young children into hospitals. Please discuss this with the ward staff. We do ask that visiting children are controlled to prevent disturbing other patients.
- Please buzz for access to the ward and cleanse your hands with alcohol gel before entering.
- Visiting is restricted to two people at a time.
- We do not allow flowers on any of our wards due to the risk of infection.
- If you are feeling unwell we ask that you help to reduce the risk of infection to patients by staying away until you feel better.
Protected mealtimes
All non-urgent clinical activity stops during mealtimes to allow patients to eat their meals in a calm and relaxing environment without unnecessary interruption.
Please avoid visiting at mealtimes unless you would like to help your relative or friend with their meal.
