Naas General Hospital is currently experiencing a high number of patients with Covid-19 which appears to be circulating in the community. As a result they have implemented visiting restrictions in all wards to reduce the spread of the virus in the healthcare setting.
 
Visiting will take place on critical and compassionate grounds only. These measures will be kept under review and updated as soon as it is possible to do so. For up to date guidelines on visiting patients, please visit: https://www2.hse.ie/services/disruptions/
 
The Hospital would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank the public for their understanding and consideration.
 
Where possible, the management at Naas General Hospital is asking patients with non-emergency conditions to seek assistance from other parts of the health service such as their local Pharmacist, GP, GP out of hours service, or a local injury unit.
 
The Naas Hospital Injury Unit is located in Vista Primary Care, Naas. To view the opening hours you can visit Naas Hospital Injury Unit - HSE.ie If you require urgent medical attention out of hours, you can visit https://www2.hse.ie/services/find-a-gp-out-of-hours/
