The following visiting arrangements are in place for the Ayrshire Hospice In-patient Unit at East Ayrshire Community Hospital (EACH) in Cumnock:

  • Visiting time is between 10am - 8pm.
  • An unlimited number of family members or friends may visit a patient for the duration of their stay. However, due to the ward environment we respectfully ask that there are no more than 2 visitors per patient at one time.
  • We prefer if you do not visit for more than 2 hours at a time to allow us to promote rest. However, visitors can attend as multiple times during the day (10am – 8pm) if they wish.
  • Children will be made very welcome if they would like to visit a loved one during their stay with us.
  • If your loved one is approaching end of life you will be guided by our experienced nursing team in regards to visiting, where special arrangements will be made.
  • Any further guidance and support around visiting will be provided by our team.

If you want to speak to a member of our team in regards to visiting, please contact the In-Patient Unit on 01292 434620.
