    We recognise that visiting a person in hospital plays a vital part in aiding their treatment recovery and overall care. To enable this to happen at the Royal Surrey County Hospital the Matrons have developed this Visitors' Charter to support the National Matrons Charter, this is supported by the Trust Executive Team. The aim of the Charter is to ensure that visitors are aware of what they can expect of us and what is expected of them, whilst visiting in the hospital.
