Due to exceptional demand, Bedford Hospital is currently restricting visitation to one healthy person at a time. We ask that you wear a mask when visiting, masks are available in all ward areas.

From 26 December, this will change to one healthy person per day, ideally wearing a mask for closed wards or bays. The rest of the hospital can still have two visitors. We ask that you wear a mask when visiting, masks are available in all ward areas

Patients with appointments at the hospital should continue to attend, unless told otherwise, and please only attend A&E if urgent and emergency care is required.
