Parking

Use only staff parking P2. Very spacious. 😊

Transportation

Bus from city hospital to MPAR and back.

Preferred method is car or car-pooling w/ someone.

Rough overview on where everything is: (It takes time to know where everything is)

Elevators: Main method of transport between floors. There are stairs too but need access cards, some issues too.

<aside> 💡 The overview of the building is that you have an area for patients and OPD and then another area that can be accessed only via access cards for staff. Hence you have 2 sets of elevators: For guests (the smaller posh elevators) and for staff (larger typical hospital elevators)

</aside>

Furthermore, for each of these sets of elevators you have 2 each on opposite sides of the hospital. For easy reference we’ll refer to the elevators w/ punch in/out (if you are on the ground floor) as the left elevators. And the opposite side elevators as the right elevators (near emergency area if you are on the ground floor)

Its important to know which elevator you're taking as some floors are divided and you cant go to were you want on that floor and will need to use a certain elevator to get to were you want. (That may not make much sense now but when you're in the hospital you’ll get it)

In general, you’re mostly using the elevators that don’t have the punch in/out machines (if you are on the ground floor). These elevators provide u with the easiest access to all floors:

Doc lounge (1st floor). Outpatient clinics (1st and 2nd floors- changing so I didnt go into details). ICU (3rd floor). Wards (5th floor- maybe changing though ??). Cafeteria and CME (8th floor).

If you are on the 5th floor (wards) you need your access card to call the elevator!

<aside> 💢 The “staff elevators” only work with an access card. If you find yourself in one without your access card the only floor you can go to is G floor. So don’t panic

</aside>

Guest elevator on the right: If you are on ground floor: they are opposite radiology waiting area. On the 1st floor they are right next to doctor lounge.
