Tips from our drivers for Peninsula Private Hospital
- Check your appointment letter for the building or suite name and include it in your booking notes.
- If you are attending a series of treatments, booking each trip in advance gives you one less thing to organise.
- After a procedure under sedation, use “pick up when ready” so the nurses can release you in their own time.
Going home from Peninsula Private Hospital
- Pick-up point
- Discharged patients generally wait for us at the main entrance. Tell us your ward or day unit and we will confirm the pick-up point.
Discharge tips
- Book a “pick up when ready” trip ahead: choose the day, then tap “I’m ready” on your booking page (or call us) when the ward lets you go.
- Discharge often takes longer than planned — waiting for medicines, a doctor’s sign-off or transport letters is normal. We only send the car when you are ready.
- Have your discharge letter, medicines and any walking aids with you, and tell us if you need help from the ward to the car.
- Travelling with a wheelchair or a carer? Say so when you book so we send the right vehicle.

Peninsula Private Hospital is a private hospital on McClelland Drive in Langwarrin, near Frankston, operated by Ramsay Health Care. The campus includes surgical and medical services, along with specialist consulting suites, and it serves privately insured patients from Frankston and right across the Mornington Peninsula.
Trips here are often part of a longer course of care: surgery and a stay, a run of specialist appointments, or regular treatment visits. Many patients cannot drive afterwards, and even those who can may prefer not to after a long or tiring treatment. Families coming to visit also appreciate not having to search for parking on a busy campus. For patients from the southern Peninsula in particular, the trip to Langwarrin is long enough that relying on friends for every visit quickly becomes difficult.
Taxi Peninsula provides sedans for quick trips and wheelchair accessible vehicles for passengers who use a chair. We will take you in for an early admission, wait for your call when you are ready to go home, and run repeat trips for ongoing treatment. Drivers help door to door. We accept NDIS and aged-care accounts, and MPTP cards for eligible passengers.
