UK scans and other appointments

Miranda

I am in tier 4 and my partner has missed out on every scan so far. We missed her coming to my 12 week scan (my second attempt was at 15 weeks) by 5 days.

This afternoon is my 28 week scan and I just called to check with the hospital if my partner can attend. They said no because we are in tier 4.

From my reading, I thought that hospitals were now required to let partners or another adult attend. Was the hospital correct or are they misleading me?
