COVID-19 Level 2 update.

Whānau and friends play an important role in the wellbeing of the patients that we care for. While restrictions are in place to help keep everyone safe, we want to make sure that you get the support and information you need to stay in touch with your loved one while remaining safe.  

Visitor Restrictions

Special visiting rules are now in place across all our sites. These limit the number of people who can visit a patient and how often they can visit. We need to do this to help stop the spread of COVID-19 and to protect sick patients who may be at more risk of the impact of COVID-19.

Can I Visit an Inpatient at Auckland DHB?

• Nearly all inpatients can choose two people from the same “extended bubble” to visit them.

• Visitors need to be fourteen years of age or older.

• One of these two people can visit for up to two hours, every day.

• You can swap between the two people on different days.

In a small number of circumstances additional visitors or visits or longer visits may be possible. These need to be discussed with the ward before you visit.

Please note that additional restrictions are in place for cancer and blood services.

What Times can I Visit an Inpatient?

You can visit for up to two hours, anytime between 7.00am and 8.00pm. Make sure you co-ordinate with the other nominated visitor to make sure you are not visiting on the same day.

Can I Support and Visit a Mother During Labour and Her Inpatient Stay?

One support person can stay with a woman during her labour and delivery. After a baby is born a mother and her baby can have visits from one of two nominated people, once every day, as above.

Can I visit an Inpatient who is diagnosed with COVID-19?

In some situations, one nominated person can visit an inpatient who is diagnosed with COVID-19. Some important safety steps need to be carried out before anyone can visit, so it is important that you contact the ward before turning up. Here are the things you need to do to make sure you stay safe:

• Before visiting: the risk of visiting a patient will be assessed before any visits can be agreed to. If it is safe to visit, you will be told about the risk of visiting.

• During your visit: you will need to wear protective equipment and follow the instructions of staff, in order to keep safe.

• After your visit: the Auckland Regional Public Health Service will get in touch as you will have been in contact with COVID-19.

Can I Come with Someone for Their Outpatient Appointment?

Patients coming to an Auckland DHB facility for an outpatient appointment are able to bring one support person, from their “extended bubble” with them if required.

What Happens When I Arrive?

Staff will ask for your name and the details of the person you are visiting at the entrance. They will check if you have been nominated by a patient as one of their two visitors.

A nurse will then ask you some simple health screening questions to make sure it is safe for you to enter the hospital.

Your name and the details of your visit will be recorded and you will be given a sticker to wear. Wearing this sticker helps patients and our staff to know that it is safe for you to be visiting.

Can I Bring or Drop Off Food and Other Items?

In most areas, you can bring food and other items with you for your visitor. If you are unable to visit in person you can leave items at the entrance and they will be delivered to the ward.

You cannot drop off food to inpatients in mental health services.

How Do I Keep Safe While I am Visiting?

There are a few important safety steps you need to take throughout your visit:

1. Wash your hands well and often;

2. Keep a safe distance – stay 2 metres away from other people; and wear your entry sticker at all times.

In addition to the following cafes and food services, snack and cold drink vending machines are located in the main hospital corridors on most levels.
