The Emergency Department (ED) cares for patients who come to hospital with urgent or life-threatening illness or injuries. A visit to a busy hospital A&E department for minor ailments, injuries and illnesses could mean a very long wait, as emergency cases take priority.
Vehicle access to Salisbury District Hospital’s Accident and Emergency (A&E) Department has changed to ‘drop off’ only. This change has been made to improve access for Ambulances and applies to the approach ramp as well as the area immediately outside A&E. Parking on the ramp is no longer allowed as all designated parking spaces at A&E have been allocated for ambulances only.Â
Parking, including designated disabled bays, is available at the Main Entrance and in car parks across the Trust.
By car: The nearest longer stay parking can be found in car park 2, which is located by the hospital main entrance. Once parked, please use the pedestrian walk way up the ramp to the Emergency Department (A&E) entrance or enter on department entrance on Level 3.
By car: Enter hospital site at Entrance A and follow the red signs for Accident and Emergency. The entrance to the Emergency Department (ED) is at the top of the ramp.
By bus: Alight at Main Entrance (third stop).Â
