Carstenhof Hospital Visiting Hours

At Carstenhof Hospital, we understand the importance of family and friends during a patient’s recovery process. To ensure that all our patients receive the care and support they need, we have established visiting hours that balance the comfort and safety of our patients with the convenience of their loved ones.

Visiting Hours:

• Weekdays: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM – 8:00 PM
• Weekends and Public Holidays: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Special Considerations:

• Intensive Care Unit (ICU): Due to the critical nature of the patients in the ICU, visiting hours are more restricted. Visitors are allowed from 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM daily. We kindly ask that visitors limit their stay to a short period to allow for necessary medical procedures and patient rest.
• Maternity Ward: Partners and immediate family members are welcome to visit from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM. We encourage you to check with the ward staff for any specific visitation protocols in place to ensure the well-being of new mothers and their babies.

Visitor Guidelines:

• Identification: All visitors are required to present valid identification at the reception desk upon arrival.
• Health Precautions: For the health and safety of our patients, we request that visitors adhere to hygiene protocols, including hand sanitization and wearing appropriate masks if needed.
• Behavior: We ask that visitors maintain a respectful noise level and comply with the hospital’s guidelines to create a calm and healing environment for all patients.
