Angry relatives 'unable to visit patients' as New Cross Hospital changes rules

Visitors to some patients at New Cross Hospital have been told they can only see their loved ones once a week and have to book 24 hours ahead.

However, relatives claim getting through to the Wolverhampton hospital on the phone is almost "impossible".

Mike Beddows said after the two years of almost no visitors being allowed, he was shocked to be told he could not see his mother for regular visits.

He said: "We were told the rules had changed and I could only see her once a week. And I would have to book an appointment 24 hours before, which might work in theory but they never answer the phone so it is impossible to see mum."

Bosses at the Wolverhampton NHS Trust said visiting restrictions for all patients are being regularly reviewed in line with Covid restrictions lifting in the UK.

However, they stressed purposeful visits to support a patient receiving end of life care or to support someone with dementia, a learning disability or autism continue.

Mr Beddow's mother Elsie, 83, has fluid on the lungs and has been in hospital for over a week now. He said she wants to return home as she feels isolated.

"I feel awful knowing she is in there alone. We were not given a reason just that the rules were changed on Monday."

Another relative of a patient in New Cross is frustrated they have not been able to visit.

The man, who did not want to be named, said: "I work during the day and just cannot get through on the phone to book a visit, I know when I do finally get to see my dad he will not believe I even tried."

Ann-Marie Cannaby, The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust’s chief nurse, said: "Healthcare settings support many vulnerable people which is why we are still doing all we can to keep patients and staff as safe as possible and we want to thank the public for helping us to do so.

"Covid-19 hasn’t gone away so we are asking anyone who attends our hospitals or community services to please continue to wear a face covering, unless medically exempt, continue to distance and to ensure good hand hygiene. Covid-19 affects some people much more seriously than others and we know that it can be fatal so we still need to be cautious."

Meanwhile, Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust allows patients to have visitors every day at Sandwell Hospital, West Bromwich, Rowley Regis Hospital and City Hospital, Birmingham.

The guidelines are: "We have eased our visiting restrictions to allow inpatients on certain wards to receive one visitor for up to 30 minutes per day.

"Patients can nominate two individuals who can visit for the duration of their stay, ideally from the same household."

Visitors must sanitise their hands, wear a mask, book in advance and no children are allowed. . The trust stopped the need for a lateral flow test today (Friday) except for maternity ward visits.

The Trust confirmed visiting procedures will be reviewed every week up until and after April 1 when UK Covid restrictions and free testing is scrapped.

Walsall NHS Healthcare Trust also confirmed visiting regulations to Manor Hospital are reviewed regularly and any changes will be clearly communicated to everyone.

Coordinates of Elektrostal in decimal degrees

Coordinates of elektrostal in degrees and decimal minutes, utm coordinates of elektrostal, geographic coordinate systems.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
