Visiting with children Child visiting suite 

We are very careful to look after the welfare of anyone under 18 who wishes to visit. Our social workers will carry out a family assessment before any visits from children can be arranged, please allow time for this to be completed. Child visits take place away from other patients, in a child friendly visiting suite and will be supervised to ensure everyone remains safe.
