COVID-19: Visitor policy back to normal in Alert Level 1


At level 1 the visitor policy across Waikato DHB facilities returns to normal:

  • Visiting hours for most wards: 11am-1.30pm and 4-8pm
  • Use hand sanitiser provided on arrival and when leaving
  • Please do not visit a patient if you feel unwell
  • Children are welcome if supervised


Please note: There may be restrictions to visiting our critical care areas such as Critical Care (ICU and HDU), Newborn Intensive Care Unit (NICU) or Henry Rongomau Bennett Centre due to capacity and will be at the discretion of the Charge Nurse Manager.


It's still important that everyone keeps up hygiene measures, including washing hands and coughing or sneezing into your elbow.
