ONCOLOGY - THE CANBERRA HOSPITAL - GETTING THERE
Click here for the main webpage for the Canberra One-Stop Cancer Web-Shop.
It is generally easier to reach the Oncology area from the back of the Hospital. There are nearby covered and uncovered public parking areas with a two-hour limit, which is sometimes enforced. If you receive a ticket and believe you have good reason for not being fined, make sure you apply for the fine to be withdrawn. |
This is the back entrance to the Hospital. The Oncology treatment room is to the left on the floor next to the green facade. Radiation Oncology has a separate entrance to the left before you reach the ground floor entrance. There is a set-down and pick-up area. |
As you enter the back entrance, this office for theACT Government's Equipment Loans Service is on your right. It is where you can hire equipment (wheelchairs, bathroom aids, bed poles etc) but you first require some paperwork from treating staff. |
This is a close-up of the entrance to Equipment Services mentioned in the previous panel. |
Proceed past the hydrotherapy area on your left (you can smell the chlorine!). Take the first lift on your right from the ground floor, or the stairs. The lift only goes to the next floor and when you alight you will see this sign on the wall. |
This is another sign as you get out of the lift, or as you proceed down the corridor if entering from the front foyer of the Hospital. |
This is a view of the outside of Ward 14B which is for Oncology in-patients. The entrance is just past the earlier green sign. |
This is looking up the corridor from the other direction as you alight from the lift. The Chaplains' offices are through that entrance to the left and the Oncology Pharmacy rooms are on the same side of the corridor. The Chapel is off to the right. |
Here is the entrance to the Chaplains' room. |
This is looking down the corridor, towards Tuggeranong. The entrance to the PSU is at the end of the corridor. The entrance you will want is off to the right (Ward 14A), underneath the sign. The office to the left is occupied by the Clerk for Ward 14B. There are public toilets down this corridor to the left and also on the ground floor before you reach the lift. |
