With on-going construction and multiple services coming back, visitor parking can fill to capacity between 0800 - 1700h, Monday to Friday. If you are able, consider arranging for someone to drive you to your appointment. If you choose to park, give yourself an extra 20+ minutes to ensure you have time to park and get to your appointment.
Please note you do not have to pay for parking when you leave a parking lot within 15 minutes. Revenue from parking fees is used to support patient care and the purchase of hospital equipment.

FAQS
How To Pay for Parking
There are three ways to pay for parking.
- To pay by the 1/2 hr, daily flat rate or 24-hr pass, you may use one of two pay stations located at the hospital:
a) Inside Wing C, level 1 by Switchboard. This pay station is convenient if you park to the side or the front of the hospital.
b) Outside the Main Entrance, near the exit of Lot #2. This pay station is convenient for those who park in front of Wing A. Once you pay you will have 15 minutes to leave the lot. - You can also pay for your parking at the exit gate. Simply put the parking stub into the slot. When it shows the amount you need to pay, insert your credit card. You will not get a receipt using this method. Debit is not accepted at this time.
- If you use a credit card to enter the parking lot, you will not need to use the pay station. Just use the same credit card to exit the parking lot. A parking receipt is not issued using this method.
TIP: If you leave within the first 15 minutes of arriving, you will not be charged for parking.

Packs can only be purchased at the Parking Office 0900 - 2000, Monday to Friday or at Security after hours, weekends and holidays. For more information, contact the Parking Office at 519.621.2333 ext. 1359. The Parking Office is located next to Security in the Emergency Department area of Wing A (Level 1).
You have one (1) year of purchase to use your 24-hr passes. Within this time frame, you may you may give any unused passes to friends or family.
To use the 24-hour pass, drive up to a parking gate. Do not press the button for a ticket. Instead, enter the 24-hr day pass into the slot to open the gate.
