Accident and emergency
This is a 24-hour service. When you arrive at accident and emergency, you will be seen by the duty nurse to collect information and assess your illness or injury.
In a medical emergency, it is important that you do not ‘self present’ to hospital. SA Ambulance Service emergency medical dispatch support officers can provide advanced first-aid advice over the phone while an ambulance is on its way to you.
Car parking
There is disabled parking onsite.
Disabled access
The buildings are wheelchair accessible and there are toilets for people with disability. Please ask at Reception.
Visiting hours
General wards: 10:00 am to 8:00 pm.
