When you arrive
Day surgery admission
Please take note of which hospital your child is booked into.
Please take note of the date and time your child is expected to arrive at the hospital.
It is important that you are on the ward on time so that we are not rushing to get your child ready. This can add stress and anxiety for you and your child which can lead to a delay or postponement of your child’s surgery.
Parking information
Visitor car parking is available at each site where you will obtain a ticket on entry and pay on exit (refer to for site-specific car parking information). Please note street parking is very limited and is mostly of a two hour limit. Parking inspectors book on a regular basis.
