In a medical emergency, call 111 and ask for an ‘ambulance’.
The Emergency Department is for serious emergencies only, not for long-standing or minor injuries or illnesses which can be treated by your family general practice team or an after hours clinic.
Please see the information listed below about parking and transport for patients using Christchurch Outpatients services.
The hospital shuttle service from the Lichfield Street Car Park building drops patients off and picks them up at the new Christchurch Outpatients building.
The drop-off/pick-up point will be at the entrance of the Outpatients building on Oxford Terrace.
For more information on the hospital shuttle, see our Christchurch Hospital parking page.
We recommend using the hospital shuttle bus service from the Lichfield Street Car Park building, as there is only very limited on-street parking near the Outpatients building itself.
If you prefer to try to park nearer the hospital the nearest off-street car parking to the Outpatients building is a Wilsons car park on Antigua Street, but there are several other car parks within a short walk. See the City Council’s website for an up-to-date parking map.
See Christchurch Hospital for more detailed information about parking and transport.
If you are a mobility parking permit holder you can park in one of the designated mobility car parking spaces (indicated by a wheelchair icon on the map below) located outside the front of Christchurch Hospital, Christchurch Outpatients and nearby on Cambridge Terrace.

Drivers can drop patients off and pick them up – no waiting! – outside the building and park elsewhere.
- This area is very congested, including deliveries to the building, cyclists and pedestrians.
- Volunteers and security personnel will be on hand to assist.
