The Nova Scotia Health Authority announced new restrictions on patient visits to all hospitals around the province.
Effective immediately a patient can name up to two people who will be their family or primary support person/people, only those two will be allowed to visit. The people selected can be changed by the patient over time.
They also reminded anyone who intends to visit a hospital to sanitize your hands and if you have been in contact with someone who is sick you should not visit hospitals at all.
