EMERGENCY

In an emergency, always call triple zero (000). It’s a free call from any phone, mobile or phone box.

For other urgent medical issues, go to an Emergency Department.

Our Emergency Departments are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week:

The Transit Lounge facilitates discharge and patient flow from the inpatient areas and Emergency Department. This service applies only to non-emergency patient transfers and discharges for patients in a stable condition.

Patients who arrive by ambulance for appointments at Outpatient Services will also be managed through the Transit Lounge on arrival and return.

Your stay in the Transit Lounge is expected to be short term and patients may access light snacks, beverages and meals at mealtimes during their wait. 

Hours of service: 8:00am to 6:30pm Monday to Friday

How to get there: The Transit Lounge is located on the ground floor on the east side of the hospital. Access is via the main entry, then turn right or through the access door on the east side of the hospital.

A dedicated short-term car park for ambulances, taxis, community and private vehicles is available on the east side of the transit lounge.
