"Poor Social Distancing + Coronavirus measures"

About: Lister Hospital

I had to attend the hospital this morning for an urgent appointment for my baby daughter

I was disappointed at how lax the whole hospital has become with regards to Coronavirus awareness and prevention

There was no provision for Hand Sanitiser, Face Masks or Disposable gloves at the main entrance to the hospital I simply strolled in - fortunately I had made my own arrangements for all the items above

Equally there seemed to little regard for social distancing within the hospital by patients, guests or staff alike who had a lax and inconsistent attitude in their approach to wearing (or not) PPE within the hospital, social distancing and gathering in groups

No floor signage, no one way / one direction layouts, and no one advising or enforcing the regulations

The poor organisation and discipline of the Lister has also been my previous experience and is in stark contrast to Welwyn Garden City urgent care, and Cambridge Addenbrookes

Which unfortunately means we only attend the Lister in cases of emergency or last resort
