Visitors must park in the designated parking areas. There is ample wheelchair accessible parking in lots. Weekly and monthly passes can be purchased at the parking kiosks.

Parking lots for patients & visitors
It is our goal for PRHC's patients and visitors to have access to close, convenient and safe parking. The hospital has almost 400 parking spaces available to patients and visitors.

Patients and visitors are directed to park in one of two main lots – the current lot, and/or an adjacent lot to the west. All patients and visitors can access the parking lots via Hospital Drive. A small lot is available for Palliative Care, Mental Health and Oncology programs accessible off Alexander court. A small lot is also available to Emergency patients which is adjacent to the Emergency Department.

Accessible parking
Accessible parking spaces are concentrated in the lot closest to the hospital. There are pay-and-display accessible spaces at the Emergency, North and South entrances.

15-minute spaces
PRHC has 13 free drop-off and pick-up spaces with a strict 15-minute time limit located near the main entrance.

Safety
In the interest of increased safety and security, a surveillance booth has been added as part of the patient and visitor parking lot. The booth is staffed by security personnel 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There are emergency stations located in the general staff lot. Video surveillance will be in effect.

Patients and Visitors 
Visitors to the hospital take a ticket upon entry to the parking lot, and pay by cash or credit card at one of three pay station locations including inside the Main entrance, South entrance and Emergency Departments.

Rates
Revenue from parking goes to support patient care. Government funds 85% of operating expenses to run our hospital and provide patient care. It has an explicit expectation that hospitals raise funds from such things as parking, preferred or private room rates and cafeteria revenue to fund the remaining 15%. PRHC monitors the rates at other non-GTA, similar-sized, community hospitals to ensure that our rate is in line with what other facilities in our LHIN are charging.

Rates are as follows:

Patients & Visitors
Regular rates: First half-hour $4; subsequent half-hours $2. Maximum of $10 per single visit in a 24-hour period, no in-and-out privileges
Daily Pass: $12 for 24 hours, with unlimited in-and-out privileges
Weekly Pass: $36, with unlimited in-and-out privileges for 7 days
Monthly Pass: $80 with unlimited in-and-out privileges for 30 days
Cancer Care & Dialysis Pass: $50 per month
