Princess Royal Maternity Hospital, adjacent to Glasgow Royal Infirmary on Alexandra Parade, provides maternity and special care baby unit/ITU facilities for neonates. Princess Royal Information
This is an Emergency Department. We prioritise people who have a serious injury or accident or who have a sudden serious illness or medical condition. It may be more appropriate and you may be seen more quickly by your GP or another health care professional rather than waiting for treatment here.
If you think that someone's life is at risk you should call 999 right away.
You can attend your local Minor Injury Unit (MIU) to get urgent care for a minor injury including sprains, burns and simple fractures. MIUs are run by highly experienced Emergency Nurse Practitioners who will assess and either treat a minor injury or, if they find a more serious problem, arrange for you to be transferred elsewhere.

Glasgow Royal Infirmary - The laboratory is located in the MacEwen Building on Alexandra Parade (adjacent to A&E). It provides routine service Mon-Fri between 9am and 5pm and on Saturday between 9am and 12pm. An emergency service operates at all times.

The Chapel is on the ground floor in the Centre Block of the Glasgow Royal Infirmary, Old Building. It is regularly used by patients, staff and visitors as a place of quiet reflection and prayer. The Chapel is traditional in design with attractive and interesting stained glass. Access to the Chapel is via a short flight of steps, with a wheelchair lift available to those with walking difficulties.
The Chapel is open daily from 7am-7pm. Out with these hours a member of the Security Staff will unlock the door for anyone wishing access.

A Quiet Room is on the 1st floor of the Surgical Block, Old Building, Glasgow Royal Infirmary. Comfortable seating, reading material, washing facilities and a prayer area are provided.
The Chaplaincy Service delivers spiritual and religious care to all people. Spiritual care addresses the fundamental human need to have a sense of peace, security and hope particularly in the context of injury, illness or loss. Healthcare Chaplains do this by being attentive to the patient’s story, looking for sources of strength and resilience, valuing the person and what is most important to them. Religious care can be a crucial aspect of this. Healthcare Chaplains work with other NHS staff to ensure that these needs are met and, where appropriate, in partnership with local faith and belief groups.
