Queen Elizabeth Hospital Mandates Mask-Wearing and General Personal Protection Measures for Patient and Staff Safety

To ensure the health and safety of our patients, visitors, and staff, we are reminding

the public mask wearing is mandatory in clinical spaces at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital. This

includes the Accident and Emergency Department, Outpatient Clinics, the Pharmacy, QEH

Wards, patient rooms, treatment areas, and any spaces where clinical care is provided. Masks

are a crucial measure to protect against the spread of infections and to safeguard everyone

within our facility.

General Personal Protection: We also encourage all visitors and patients to observe

general personal protection practices throughout the hospital. This includes:

• Regular hand washing or use of hand sanitizer

• Maintaining physical distancing where possible

• Following any additional guidelines provided by hospital staff

Your cooperation and adherence to these measures are vital in helping us maintain a

safe and healthy environment for all.

Thank you for your understanding and support.
