Visiting restrictions at Ross Community Hospital wards have now been lifted following a recent outbreak of the winter vomiting and diarrhoea bug, Norovirus.
However, Arrow Ward, Ashgrove Ward and Frome Ward at Hereford County Hospital are closed to visitors as a preventative measure due to cases of Norovirus.
A Wye Valley NHS Spokesperson said: "These restrictions are in place to prevent the further spread of diarrhoea and vomiting which is affecting some patients. Visiting on these closed wards is only allowed on compassionate grounds and after discussion with the nurse in charge."
"Visiting arrangements are under daily review and may change quickly – the Trust asks that visitors call these wards prior to visiting to check the restrictions that are in place."
