We understand how important it is to have carers, family, friends or other people come to see you while you are in hospital. We also know that these people can give us important information about you, including how you normally manage at home.
Your carers, family, friends or other people may want to help you when they visit. You or your visitors can ask your nurse or midwife what visitors can do to help you, and what things staff should do.
Aboriginal Liaison Service
The Aboriginal Liaison Service gives support to Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples and their families.
The service offers emotional, social and cultural support as well as information and referrals to other services.
We have more information about our Aboriginal Liaison Service, including contact details.
Pastoral Care Service
Pastoral care is given during a hospital stay to any person who asks for it. You do not need to be religious or have a faith to benefit from pastoral care.
We can give emotional and pastoral support to you, your family and your friends while you are in hospital, in a way that suits you.
If you have a faith or belong to a religious group, we may be able to arrange someone from that church or faith to support you.
Please tell us if you would like to talk with someone from our pastoral care service.
Chapel
The chapel is open at all times, and provides a calm and restful environment for all patients and visitors.
People of all faiths can visit the Chapel.
