Young Children and Babies

Children must be kept under supervision at all times during visiting and it is recommended that young babies are not brought into the wards.

Postal Services

Incoming letters and parcels are delivered to the wards twice daily. To avoid delay in receiving mail, please tell friends and relatives to include your ward in their address.
