The entrance to the Emergency Department (ED) is located on level 2. On arrival at the ED, you will be assessed by senior clinicians in a ‘Quick Look’ area, to determine what treatment you require.

Short-term 15 minute patient pick up and drop off zones located on Levels 2 and 3 are in close vicinity to the main entrance, outpatient clinics and the Emergency Department.

Touch screen information kiosks are located throughout the hospital including at the main entrance on level 3, near the food court, emergency entrance and public car park lobbies. They provide printed directions and on screen maps. The kiosks are easy to use, wheelchair accessible and feature a range of language options.

Signs help you identify the floor you are on and the area you are in, using a combination of letters and numbers. For example 3E means you are on Level 3 and in section E. Each section has its own colour and artwork theme. For example section G is blue and the artwork theme is water.

Visiting hours are 2.30pm to 8.30pm daily. While some wings have restrictions, visiting hours are negotiable. Please speak with the nursing staff to check the wing’s visiting times.

Most outpatient clinics are located together on Level 3 with direct lift access from the carpark. Outpatients can register their arrival at the touch screen appointment kiosks.
