Welcome to Critical Care Unit at The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (Previously known as ITU / HDU)
Please speak to a member of staff before bringing children on the ward. For more information about what to expect during visiting and on discharge please visit the ICU Steps website.
When visiting us at the ward we politely ask;
- That you make sure mobile phones are switched off.
- You avoid bringing flowers onto the ward due to hygiene reasons.
- Visitors avoid sitting on patient beds.
- There are no more than two visitors at a bedside.
- Chairs are put away at the end of each visit.
- Hand rub that is located on the main ward door is used when entering and leaving the ward. This is an important infection control measure.
