Parking

Revenues generated from the parking revenues are reinvested into our hospital to upgrade our hospital services and equipment to improve the care we provide to our patients.

A one-way, drop-off lane for patients is available on the north side of Deacon Street. All parking on the north side of Deacon Street is designated accessible parking only. Public parking for all other patients and visitors is located on the south side of Deacon Street in gated parking lots.

Paid parking is operated by SP+.

Where to Park When Picking Up A Patient 

When a patient has been discharged and is ready to go home, we ask that you please do the following when you are scheduled to pick up the patient:

• All Surgical patients are to be picked up at the Tower D entrance.  

All other patients 

• Please park in our Deacon Street parking lot and remember to bring your parking ticket with you.

• Check in at the nursing station on the patient's unit to pick up the patient and receive any discharge instructions.

• When leaving to get your vehicle, the patient may wait in the seating by Diagnostic Imaging (Tower B by the Mural Café).

• On your way out you can pay for parking at the machine located between the double doors at the Tower B entrance.

• You may then drive into the Emergency Vehicle entrance (off Mackay Street) and pull up to the Tower B entrance to retrieve the patient from the DI waiting area. No extended parking is permitted in this area.
