In the interests of our patients, staff and doctors, visiting hours are currently:
Our hospital allows 2 visitors per patient during hospital visiting hours, in accordance with the latest Queensland Health directives on COVID-19.
If you have any questions regarding current visiting hours, we recommend you contact our hospital directly to confirm visitation rules and visiting hours before leaving home.
The following applies for visitors, including volunteers and contractors, to all Aurora Healthcare hospitals in Queensland.
Aurora adheres to Government recommendations:

The Queensland Government have advised that effective 7am, Wednesday 18th January 2023, the traffic light level has been de-escalate from orange to green.
This means that the requirement to wear masks in hospitals has been lifted as per the below:
Green (baseline) means there are low rates of community transmission and Queensland is not in a COVID-19 wave.
When the traffic light is green, we recommend you:
You can wear a mask at any time if you choose to.
You should always stay home if you’re sick, maintain good hygiene and keep up to date with your vaccinations.
From 14 October 2022, the requirement to isolate after a positive COVID test is no longer mandatory.
However, for the continued safety of our staff and patients in our hospitals, we are following the advice from National Cabinet regarding facilities within high-risk settings. We therefore require all staff and visitors who are COVID-19 positive to not enter our hospital facilities for seven (7) days from their positive COVID-19 test date.
We thank you for your patience and understanding in our duty to provide a safe environment for those in our hospitals.
In accordance with Queensland legislation, smoking is prohibited on Eden Private Hospital grounds, and a five metre buffer beyond our boundary. This applies to all patients, visitors and staff at all times and includes all smoking products including regular cigarettes and e-cigarettes. Please observe no smoking signage around our hospital grounds, as Queensland Health can issue on the spot fines to people in breach of this legislation.
