Vincent Pallotti is really several facilities on one site and each keeps its own hours: the acute wards, a 36-bed rehabilitation unit, the Life St Vincent's mental health unit and an oncology centre. Rehabilitation opens for five hours on a Sunday. Grandparents have their own maternity slot at 10:00, and only the patient's own children may visit maternity. In the paediatric ward one parent can room in while the other visits during hours, and in the neonatal ICU parents may visit together twice a day.
