Free parking at Derriford Hospital
Nobody likes to pay for parking, especially when you're visiting someone in the hospital, but free parking is available for some people.
Free parking is available for:
- Blue badge holders
- Trust volunteers
- Resident parents of children in hospital or parents whose babies are being cared for in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
- Relatives of patients who are critically ill. The Intensive Care Unit will contact the parking desk
- Oncology patients are attending for treatment
- Relatives of patients being cared for on the End-of-Life Care Pathway
- Those who are visiting the bereavement office or collecting a death certificate
- Members of the public donating blood if they park in the dedicated spaces in the multistory car park
- All patients who are undergoing a course of treatment and who are required to attend the hospital for at least 3 days a week
- Some patients in receipt of certain state benefits may be entitled to a refund of their parking and travel expenses
- Free car parking is available for carers who have agreed to contribute to the care of the patient while in hospital and should be offered by the ward manager or deputy as part of the agreement with the carer. One car parking pass per day is available per patient, which can be shared between carers. The Carers Card must be shown to the parking desk on level 6 to obtain free car parking.
