Flu Seems To Be Dwindling At Chatham Hospital

The Chatham hospital has one less flu outbreak to worry about.

Visitor restrictions are over on the fourth-floor Complex Continuing Care Unit but are still in place at the Stroke and Rehab Unit and Medicine Unit B.

Hospital officials declared flu and respiratory outbreaks in recent days because patients started developing flu-like symptoms, including fever, chills, cough, runny nose, headache and muscle aches.

The hospital is still asking anyone who is not feeling well, particularly with flu-like symptoms, to not visit patients at the hospital during this outbreak. Anyone visiting patients who may have influenza will be required to wear a mask, gown, and gloves. Visitors will be asked to wash their hands upon entering and leaving the hospital.
