24. 5. 2020

With regard to the validity of the emergency measure of the Ministry of Health, which regulates the general ban on visits in hospitals, we allow necessary visits to hospitalized patients at the Rehabilitation Hospital Beroun.

Rules for visiting and accompanying patients:

Rules for visits:

  • Visitation is only possible by prior arrangement with the ward manager or attending physician who will assess the necessity of the visit.
  • Visitation may only take place at a predetermined time and for a period of time determined by the hospital's attending staff.
  • The visitor's body temperature will be taken. If the temperature is above 37°C, the visitor will not be allowed access to the patient.
  • The visitor must not exhibit symptoms of COVID-19.
  • The visit must not be made by a person who is under quarantine or has recently come into contact with a COVID-19 positive person.
  • The visit will take place under conditions and in areas designated by hospital staff to minimize the visitor's contact with other patients.
  • Exceptionally and by appointment, two persons may visit one patient.
  • The visiting person must wear a drape at all times during the visit and carry out hand disinfection on entry and repeatedly during the hospital stay.
  • In multi-bedded rooms, only one patient is allowed to visit at a time.

Rules for accompanying persons:

  • Entry of a person accompanying the patient is only possible in the following cases:
- Accompanying a minor or ward (children under 18 years of age or persons with limited legal capacity);
- other justified and justifiable cases, as decided by the head or attending physician.
  • Only one person may accompany the patient at a time.
  • Each person will be questioned about the symptoms of COVID- 19 and will have their temperature taken at the entrance to the hospital. If the accompanying person or patient has a temperature above 37°C or any other positive symptom of the disease, he/she will not be allowed to enter the hospital.
  • The accompanying person must wear a drape and carry out hand disinfection on entry and repeatedly during their stay in hospital.
  • The accompanying person must respect the instructions and stay in the areas designated by the medical staff.

Thank you all for respecting these rules and restrictions, which will help us to maintain the positive course of the epidemic and reduce the risk to patients and hospital staff.
