Oncology Department COVID-19 checklist

Published: 20 March 2020

For the safety of our patients, all persons attending the Oncology Department, Ricky Grant Day Unit and Turner Ward will be required to complete a questionnaire and have a temperature check prior to entry.

As per hospital guidelines, please do not come to hospital if you have either:

  • a high temperature of over 37.8 degrees – you feel hot to touch on your chest or back
  • a new, continuous cough – this means you've started coughing repeatedly
