Multi-storey car park: fees now introduced
Parking fees now apply for visitors, patients and staff who wish to park on the Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital campus. Fees began on Monday, May 13 and will be phased in until January 2020 to allow users time to adjust to fee- based parking. All newly developed car parks are subject to parking fees according to NSW Health policy. General Manager Lee Gregory said eligible patients and their carers could seek concessional parking to ease the burden. “All long-term patients and their carers attending Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital regularly will be entitled to parking concessions,’’ he said. “Holders of pensioner, veterans, health care and mobility parking scheme concession cards will be eligible for reduced parking rates.” Concessional parking is free until June 30, 2019. Signage on the parking rates and concession information is displayed around the hospital and is also available on the Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital website.

Medical Imaging walk through their new department
Monthly construction snapshot – April 2019
Builders bake off for our volunteers Our builder, Watpac, has kindly donated the proceeds of an Easter raffle and cake stall held on the building site recently to our hospital volunteers. The construction workers raised about $1100, which was presented directly to the Pink Ladies and Mens Volunteer Auxiliary, by Watpac Project Manager, Nick Limbrey. The money raised will go to the volunteers whose fundraising provides support to the hospital in buying equipment to support patients and clinical areas.
Construction progresses of new building The structure of the southern side of the Clinical Services Building (CSB) is finished with all six levels now beginning to be fitted out with walls, plumbing and electricity. The northern side of the CSB is also progressing well, with the concrete slab for the Pharmacy Department now poured. All excavation works are due to be completed in the coming weeks, marking a significant milestone for the project. Fit-out of the new Medical Imaging Department is continuing, with the works on schedule for completion by the end of this year. Staff have begun preparing for their move which will see a new and expanded medical imaging service for our patients and community.
