How do I get to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, and where does the car drop you off?
At Memorial Regional Hospital, 3501 Johnson Street in Hollywood, the car drops you at the free valet, which the hospital's page lists as 24 hours at the main entrance and the emergency rooms; during the current tower construction, cars cannot pull up to the main hospital door and the valet drop-off is a short walk away (Memorial Healthcare System, n.d.).
Memorial Regional Hospital is at 3501 Johnson Street, Hollywood, FL 33021. The hospital's page says valet is free for patients and visitors, 24 hours at the main entrance, the emergency room and Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital's emergency room, and on weekdays at the Medical Office Building (7 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and the breast cancer and radiation oncology center (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Its tower-construction page says vehicles cannot pull directly up to the main hospital entrance, the valet drop-off is a short walk away, and the new main entrance is open around the clock. For the Medical Office Building at 1150 N. 35th Avenue, use that building's entrance; valet drops at the entrance and collects at the back. For the Memorial Cancer Institute, use the Medical Office Building's valet and cross Hospital Drive, which is closed to traffic in this phase; discharge pick-up is at the institute's entrance on Hospital Drive, pick-up only, 24 hours a day. The two emergency departments' entrances have not changed, a free shuttle runs around the campus with fewer carts after 10:30 p.m., and where a ride-share drops off depends on the building you are visiting. (Memorial Healthcare System, n.d.).
Not on the page I read: where the emergency entrance is, in words; the ride-share point; garage names and fees. Hospitals move entrances for construction and change valet hours without notice, so the page's own words are checked by a daily watch, and the desk confirms the door with you the morning of the ride.
What the car does: the captain drops you at the entrance or valet named above, not in the car park, and nobody asks what the appointment is for. Book by the hour and the car waits through the appointment, however long it runs; for a course of visits the same captain comes whenever the schedule allows. From anywhere in Fort Lauderdale, or straight from FLL for someone flying in to be seen, on a fare agreed before the car moves. This is a car service, not medical transport: captains help with the door and the bags, and cannot give physical or medical assistance.
Memorial Regional Hospital has an office for patients from abroad: its "International Patients & Global Health" page is listed with the sources below (Memorial Healthcare System, n.d.).
