R K Khan Hospital Visiting Hours
Weekends and public holidays 14:00 to 16:00
R K Khan is one of the few hospitals where the weekend is easier than the week: Saturday, Sunday and public holidays give you a straight two hours from 14:00, while weekdays are split into two shorter periods. The hospital limits visitors to three at a bedside at any one time and asks that you wear a mask on the premises, so a large family should take turns rather than arrive together. The evening slot starts at the unusual time of 18:15, not 18:00, and the wards do close on the hour. Ring 031 459 6000 and ask for the ward, rather than relying on these times alone.
