How do I organise transport to and from hospital?

If your reason for going to hospital is not an emergency, you'll normally be expected to make your own way there.  However, some people are eligible for non-emergency patient transport services (PTS).  In this area the service is provided by Yorkshire Ambulance Service.  To find out if you are eligible and to find out more, visit the Patient Transport Service website.

You may be able to claim a refund for the cost of your transport to hospital through the Healthcare Travel Costs Scheme (HTCS).  Visit Healthcare Travel Costs Scheme (HTCS) for more information on who is eligible, what the conditions are and how you can access the scheme.

For more information on all of the above visit the 'How do I organise transport to and from hospital?' page.

Car Parking

There are two car parks at Bridlington Hospital, with ample car parking spaces.

Ticketless Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology is in operation, which makes it simpler and quicker to enter and exit our car parks.  Cameras will read your vehicle’s number plate on arrival and on exit.

Payment can be made at the pay machines located at the main entrance when you are leaving.

Payment can be made by cash, card, apple pay, android pay or by downloading the Glide parking App.  You will need to input your vehicle registration details at the time of payment.

Standard visitor parking tariffs are clearly displayed within the visitor parking area.  The current tariffs are:

Visitors are required to pay for parking between 8.00am and 8.00pm.

There is a short stay/drop off area for five vehicles to wait for 20 minutes.

We offer several concessions to visitors and patients who attend the hospital regularly or for long periods of time. The list of parking concessions can be found here. To obtain any of these concessions please see ward or unit staff.

Blue Badge

Blue Badge holder parking is permitted free of charge in designated blue badge parking areas.  Disabled car parking spaces are available outside the main entrance.

If you are a Blue Badge holder you can register your blue badge details with us by contacting the ID and Car Parking Office to register your details.  This will give free access to all hospital sites for the length of your permit, up to five years.
