Visitor restrictions continue at St Lukes Hospital Kilkenny

Visitor restrictions remain in place at St Luke Hospital for Carlow/Kilkenny this morning.

The measures were introduced yesterday to help reduce the spread of flu, COVID-19 and RSV.

Only one visitor per patient is permitted during visiting hours of 6pm to 8pm, unless otherwise authorised by the Ward Manager.

Visitors are required to wear a mask while in the wards while the measures will be kept under review.

Anyone with non-emergency conditions are being asked to consider alternative care options such as GPs, pharmacies, and out-of-hours GP services
