Changes to the maternity restrictions at Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

The Trust say: "From tomorrow 18 September, we are making some changes to access for partners and visitors in Maternity care. The changes we are making tomorrow are summarised in the graphic below, while we have also indicated what was previously allowed so you can see the differences we've made. We will shortly be updating the advice on our maternity web pages accordingly.
We are constantly monitoring the COVID-19 infection rates in Gloucestershire both generally and for specific age groups and will be reviewing these Maternity changes on a weekly basis. These measures continue to be based on keeping you, your family and our staff as safe as possible and may vary from those in other units, even in counties close by, due to different infection rates, as well as the varying physical space of different maternity units. As a reminder, the social distancing measures in healthcare facilities remain at 2 metres."

If you have any questions, please do send Glos Hospitals Trust a direct message and they will get back to you as soon as they can.*UPDATED WITH WEB LINK* From tomorrow 18 September, we are making some changes to access for partners and visitors in Maternity care.
