Disabled information

“Attitudes and behaviour are bigger barriers than stairs and doors”.

For a number of years the Trust has had a Disability Steering Group. It meets four times a year to discuss how to improve the Trust services, accessibility and information distributed to patients, potential employees and carers/relatives.

Before you come to hospital, if you have any worries or queries you can contact us using the phone number on your appointment or admission letter or you can contact our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS).

Coming to hospital

If you require any assistance or have special requirements while you are in the hospital, please speak to a member of staff.

There are 58 parking spaces on the Torbay Hospital site for disabled badge holders, with a number by each entrance. If you are a disabled person’s badge holder, you can park free-of-charge in any parking space in the public Pay and Display areas.

Wheelchairs are available from the main entrance should you require one during your visit.
