To fight against the fifth wave and prevent the spread of the Omicron variant, the Dijon University Hospital will set up a new access plan for its site this Monday, January 3.
The Dijon University Hospital (Côte-d’Or) is adapting. Faced with the epidemic wave caused by the rise in power of the Omicron variant, the hospital center decided to review its access methods in order to limit the circulation of the virus. New measures are thus put in place from this Monday, January 3.
“Due to the active circulation of the virus and the need for stricter controls, the health pass control will be carried out as soon as you enter the site, and no longer at the entrance to the buildings”, poses from the outset the direction of the CHU in a press release published this Thursday, December 30. Note that access to emergencies and maternity is not subject to the health pass for the patients concerned.
In addition, the hospital center sector will be accessible through 6 entry points from Monday to Friday between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. On weekends and public holidays, 2 entry points will be accessible on the same time slot. At night, from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m., it will only be possible to access the CHU site through emergencies.

The hospital management also detailed the rules regarding patient visits. Thus, each hospitalized person can only receive one visitor per day, for one hour and in the afternoon. “The medical teams can, according to the individual situation of each patient, grant visits outside this framework. For example, the parents of minor patients can be authorized to come in pairs”, specifies the CHU.
People affected by Covid-19, case-contacts or who show symptoms of the virus cannot, on the other hand, come to visit a patient during his hospitalization.
More generally, each visitor is required to respect barrier gestures, including in the room of the patient they come to see. Finally, the measures also concern those accompanying patients. A person who goes to the emergency room can only have one person by his side. Patients coming for an outpatient visit cannot be accompanied, except in special circumstances. Whatever the case, each accompanying person must demonstrate their health pass.
