Discharge 
Your doctor will inform you when you are ready for discharge. It is advisable that you make arrangements with a family member or friend to accompany you home on the day of discharge.

A discharge certificate will be given to you before you leave the ward. If you need a medical certificate, please inform the doctor or nurse in advance so that it can be prepared before you leave. If medication is required, it will be dispensed to you at your bedside or you can collect them from the Satellite Pharmacy located nearest to your ward. Please ask the ward staff for specific instructions. 
 
Check Out Time  
The Hospital’s check-out time is 1.00pm. For check-outs after 1.00pm, an additional day’s rate will be chargeable. If you are waiting for someone to take you home, you may wish to wait at the Day Room. There are no additional charges for use of the Day Room.  
 
Follow-Up Care and Appointment  
Before you leave the ward, you will be advised on how to take care of yourself during your recovery.  

The ward staff may give you an appointment for follow-up at the Specialist Outpatient Clinic. Should you need to reschedule your outpatient appointment after your discharge, please call our appointments line, at Tel: 6321 4377, or fill up the on-line SOC Appointment Form.
