In an effort to ensure the safety and well-being of all patients, visitors, and staff, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) has announced the mandatory use of masks in all clinical spaces within its facility.
This policy applies to areas including the Accident and Emergency Department, Outpatient Clinics, the Pharmacy, QEH Wards, patient rooms, treatment areas, and any other spaces where clinical care is provided.
The hospital emphasized that mask-wearing is a critical measure to prevent the spread of infections and safeguard everyone within the facility. This directive comes as part of QEH’s ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe environment for healthcare delivery.
In addition to mandatory mask-wearing, QEH is also encouraging the public to adhere to general personal protection practices while on hospital grounds.
