⚠️Cork University Hospital is dealing with an outbreak Norovirus (also known as the winter vomiting bug) which is affecting two wards, with other wards under observation.

While limited visiting is still in place, HSE South West appeals to the public not to visit CUH or any other facility if they have symptoms of diarrhoea and vomiting. This is to limit the spread of this very contagious virus and to help keep vulnerable patients safe.

ℹ️Under the current restrictions:
📍Only one visitor is permitted per patient
📍Visiting hours of 2pm to 4pm and 6pm to 8pm are strictly adhered to
📍All visitors must use the alcohol hand gels supplied as they enter and leave the hospital. 💻ℹ️

These measures will be lifted as soon as possible when clinical circumstances allow. Infection control procedures are also in place on the wards and will remain until further notice.

We are aware of current shortages affecting certain brands of salbutamol nebules (liquid salbutamol used in nebulisers). Please note that this does not affect standard blue reliever inhalers.

If you are having difficulty accessing your prescribed nebules, please speak to your pharmacist about the options available to you locally. Alternative products may be available and reimbursed under community drug schemes.

Nebulised salbutamol remains important in severe asthma attacks.

Remember: when used correctly, 10 puffs of a blue reliever inhaler through a spacer (one puff at a time) can provide a similar effect to a standard nebuliser dose.

We encourage everyone with asthma and caregivers to feel confident using a spacer device correctly.
