Visiting Protocol – Services for Older People
Welcome to Marymount
We are delighted to welcome visiting for our residents and patients. We are still cognizant of high COVID levels circulating in our community and therefore of the risks to the vulnerable population for whom we provide care. The safety of our patients and staff is our priority at all times and we will do our utmost to stay open to visiting.
