Wards reopened after vomiting bug scare
11:46am Tuesday 8th April 2008
ALL four wards closed at Queen Mary's Hospital, Sidcup, following a suspected outbreak the winter vomiting disease, were reopened this week.
The wards - Brook, Reeves, Swanley and the Elmstead rehabilition unit - were closed early last week after patients began vomiting and developed diarrhoea, two of the symptoms of norovirus.
Visitors, staff and anyone due to attend the hospital as a patient were asked to stay away if they had experienced symptoms or who had been in contact with someone with them.
The wards have had a deep clean.
