The Heart Centre for Children (sometimes called the Cardiology department) is in The Children's Hospital at Westmead.  We are on Level 3 (one floor above the ground floor), towards the back left of the hospital.  If you are coming for your first visit, you may want to ask at the Main Enquiries desk at the entrance to the hospital, where volunteers are often available to escort you.

There is limited street parking around The Children's Hospital at Westmead and there are often restrictions on how long you can park on the street.  The alternative is the paid parking station next to The Children's Hospital at Westmead on Hainsworth Street.

There is a walkway that links the two hospitals.  Ask staff at Westmead Adults how to locate this and speak to security via the intercom to gain access.  The Heart Centre for Children is the first department on the left once you reach The Children's Hospital.
