Medical Centres and Hospital Parking Solutions: Efficient, Stress-Free Parking for Healthcare Facilities

Managing hospital parking is one of the most challenging aspects of healthcare facility operations. With the continuous flow of patients, staff, and visitors, ensuring organised parking spaces while reducing stress for patients, hospital staff, and often during emergency situations is no easy feat. That’s why Westmead Hospital partnered with That’s My Spot to transform their parking management, using our reliable remote control parking bollards to address their parking needs for the past six years.

The Challenges of Hospital Parking Management

Hospitals face unique parking challenges due to the high volume and variety of users, including:

• Patient and visitor parking availability: Patients needing quick access.
• Unauthorised parking: Visitors or external vehicles occupy staff or emergency parking bays.
• Managing staff parking: With such high volumes of frontline staff who work shifts round the clock, managing limited parking bay spaces often lead to disputes over reserved areas for hospital personnel, especially during visitors in hospitals often need.
• Complex parking zones: Managing multiple parking zones (e.g., emergency, visitor, staff, and disability) adds to the complexity.
• Such parking issues impact hospital efficiency, staff morale, and patient experience, especially in challenging circumstances that involve medical emergencies.

That’s My Spot’s Solution for Westmead Hospital

For eight years, Westmead Hospital has been effectively managing their parking spaces using remote control parking bollards from That’s My Spot. From a modest beginning with just 10 units in 2018, the hospital has significantly expanded its use of our innovative parking bollards, with a flank of over 70 remote control parking bollards.

Considering the sizeable number of staff utilising fleet vehicles for a multitude of purposes – ranging from commutes between hospital campuses, to home visits for patients, as well as usage for ambulances, paramedic vehicles, remedial therapy vehicles and various administrative roles, it’s crucial to maintain reserved parking for staff, emergency and specialist doctors, nurses and carers who may need to rush to the hospital at a moment’s notice. The convenience is critical to the delivery of emergency medical care.

As one of the largest hospital campuses in western Sydney, Westmead serves a broad population across several locations. Managing the limited parking spaces for staff and visitors efficiently is a top priority from an asset management perspective, especially given the high demand for hospital campus parking. That’s precisely why Westmead Hospital and NSW Health have trusted That’s My Spot with their individual parking bay allocation needs for seven years, utilising our automated parking bollards to create a seamless parking experience.
