Visiting hours are usually between 2 pm and 4 pm or 6 pm and 8 pm. However, Ward 35 Sister has agreed to open visiting for radioiodine treatments due to the restrictions set.
Under 18s and pregnant women should not visit as they are more sensitive to the effects of radiation.
The daily radiation dose rate measurements, recorded by the Nuclear Medicine staff, are used to calculate how long your visitors may stay each day.
Visiting is usually restricted to about 30 minutes per visitor on the first day of treatment but this will increase during the period of your stay.
The Nuclear Medicine staff will provide you with information regarding daily restriction and this will be recorded on a white board outside your room.
Although visitors may enter your suite they must stay in the blue area marked on the floor which is inside the first door leading to your suite. It is important that you do not give your visitors anything to take out of your room.
