Your Child’s Stay In Hospital
We know that a visit or stay in hospital can be traumatic for children and their parents. Accordingly we have made special provisions for the comfort and your peace of mind of all the family during a child’s stay in hospital.
If you are bringing your child for treatment in our Hospital you may be glad to know that special provisions have been made for their comfort and for your peace of mind.
Our Nursing staff can provide toys, games and books for a wide range of ages.
Often parents prefer to stay with their child throughout their stay in Hospital and at the time of booking, arrangements can be made to provide overnight accommodation in one of our Parent and Child rooms. Should you decide that would like to stay with your child without having pre booked a Parent and Child room we will do our very best to accommodate you.
