Hospitals across Lincolnshire have recently revised visiting hours, a development that has been well received by both patients and their loved ones. The shift towards extended visiting hours is intended to support recovery by providing greater flexibility for family members and friends to be present. Local healthcare professionals have highlighted how extended visiting hours significantly uplift patient morale, contributing to faster recovery. This move also embodies Lincolnshire’s larger commitment to patient-centred care. By tailoring practices to meet the needs of patients and their families, hospitals throughout the county are nurturing an environment that is increasingly supportive and conducive to healing.
