‘Come by yourself’ plea to Oswestry orthopaedic hospital outpatients
Patients who need to attend an appointment at the outpatients department at Shropshire’s orthopaedic hospital are being urged to leave their relatives at home or for them to wait in the car.
The call comes to reduce the number of people through the doors at the Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital near Oswestry, in a bid to protect staff and patients during the coronavirus outbreak.
There will be an exception for those who require a carer to accompany them.
Those with children are also being advised not to bring them into the hospital.
