Frequently Asked Questions

Where is handicap parking located at the hospital?

The main handicap parking is located outside of the Level 4 entrance (main entrance) and that entrance remains closed due to COVID-19 restrictions.

It's a walk down a hill to the entrance on Level 3; there have been a couple of extra handicap parking spaces created on the left side of the circle at the Level 3 entrance. This is the closest entrance to the x-ray department and is the entrance that is still required to be used by all patients entering the hospital.
