Patients and visitors will notice construction activity on our property as we prepare for the building of our new facility. All hospital programs and services are running as normal.

 

Ambulance Offload Relocation – Effective June 1, 2026

Due to the construction of the new hospital facility, ambulance patient offload will have a temporary relocation.

During this phase of construction, ambulances will temporarily offload patients at the hospital’s main entrance. Patients and visitors may notice increased ambulance activity in this area throughout the summer months.

What this means for patients and visitors:

  • The main entrance remains open and accessible for all patients and visitors.
  • Visitor parking continues to be available in the upper lot.
  • There are some designated parking areas for ambulances near the main entrance. Please follow onsite signage and avoid parking in these areas.
  • Patient drop-offs at the main entrance are still encouraged, especially for individuals with mobility needs.
  • Please use caution and allow extra time when arriving at the hospital, as ambulances may be entering and exiting the main entrance area.
  • Signage will be in place to help guide patients and visitors during this temporary relocation.

Access to the hospital from the lower lot (staff entrance) will remain available from 6:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation as work continues on this important redevelopment project that supports the future of our hospital. Updates will be shared as timelines evolve.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to improve our facility. Thank you!


Parking Fees

The parking fee at Stevenson Memorial Hospital (SMH) is $10 per day. Parking fees are one of the hospital's main sources of revenue, which are used to maintain parking facilities (such as snow removal, de-icing, and security services) and to support critical needs and essential care at SMH.

In 2016, the government passed mandatory regulations to ensure hospital parking is affordable for patients and visitors. Stevenson continues to follow these policies, and even with the increase from $7 to $10 in 2018, we still have one of the lowest parking fees among hospitals in the region.

Parking Options

Parking is available in the lot adjacent to the emergency entrance off of Fletcher Street. Automated parking meters are installed conveniently throughout the lot, and payment can be made by credit card or cash. Change meters are located on the left side of the Emergency entrance.

  • Daily Pass -  $10
  • Weekly Pass -  $32
  • Monthly Pass -  $66

Free street parking (with a 2-hour limit) is available on Fletcher Street across from Riverdale Park. Patients are also encouraged to use the drop-off area in front of the Emergency entrance if they are arriving by taxi, Uber, or any other transportation service.

Please park only in designated areas and be aware of Heliport restrictions. Vehicles parked in spots indicated with a green "H" must be able to move their vehicles quickly when announced in the case that a helicopter is arriving to airlift patients.
