London Irish Ward is a ward in the Stanmore Building made up of 16 single ensuite rooms and four bays, each with four beds and a bathroom/toilet. When recovering from surgery or having investigations performed, you will want care, rest and comfort. Whether you are here for a day or a number of weeks, we want you and your family to feel well informed and understand what is happening. We aim to provide a clean and safe environment to maintain your privacy and dignity.
We hope you will not hesitate to ask for as much information and advice as you require about any aspect of your care here on London Irish Ward
Starting on 28 June 2024, RNOH will have flexible visiting times for inpatients. There will be no set visiting hours, so up to two visitors can come whenever it is convenient for the patient.
Visitor guidelines
We’d kindly ask that you:
- Avoid visiting during meal times, sleep/rest times, treatments, or personal care times.
- Keep noise levels low and respect the privacy of other patients.
- Step outside of the bay during your visit, if asked to by staff, to protect the confidentiality and dignity of other patients.
The nurse in charge will make the final decision on visiting times to ensure patient needs and overall wellbeing are balanced.
If more than one person is needed, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.
For patients receiving end-of-life care, we will accommodate visitors at any time to meet their needs and preferences.
