About this service

Care and support
for your visit.

A parent or guardian can arrange a visit for a child’s health concern. Reception helps coordinate the appropriate clinical team.

The treating clinician explains any tests, treatment and follow-up needed after assessing your child.

When admission is needed, the medical and nursing teams coordinate care in the children’s ward and keep the family informed.

For an urgent concern, come to the main hospital or call urgent care. Please do not wait for an appointment response.

Routine consultations: Monday–Saturday, 8am–5pm; Sunday, 2pm–6pm. The hospital and inpatient care remain open 24 hours.

Report to reception in the main hospital building first.

Bring the child’s hospital card or health record if available, previous reports, any referral and details of current medicines.

Reception can help you arrange your visit.
