Patient and visitor car parking charges are resuming on Wednesday 1 June 2022.

Effective from Monday 20 June 2022, our visitor policy has changed to allow patients two visitors a day, for up to an hour.

This applies to all wards. Visiting slots can be pre-booked between 10am and 8pm.

This will be reviewed regularly based on the current situation at St Mary's Hospital alongside the latest guidance from UK Government and NHS England.

Those with symptoms of a respiratory infection, including COVID-19, and a high temperature or who feel unwell, should try to stay at home and avoid contact with other people until they feel well enough to resume normal activities and they no longer have a high temperature.

If your symptoms are serious, or get worse, contact NHS 111.

Face masks are no longer required to be worn in most areas of the Trust unless it is your personal preference to do so.

This guidance may change if there is a known or suspected outbreak of COVID, or a new variant emerges.

Please visit our Patients and Visitors page for the latest guidance. This page was last updated on Monday 20 June 2022.
