St Apollinaris Hospital Visiting Hours
Sundays and public holidays 09:00 to 11:30 and 19:00 to 20:00
Sunday is the day to come to St Apollinaris. The morning window opens at 09:00 and runs for two and a half hours, against 90 minutes from 11:00 on an ordinary weekday, which is the hospital making room for families who travel in for the day. The evening hour is the same all week. The hospital sits at the Centocow mission on a gravel approach outside Creighton, a long way from a main road, so give yourself more travelling time than the map suggests and avoid arriving after dark in wet weather. Phone 039 833 9002 first if the patient was admitted in the last day or two.
Who this hospital serves
It serves about 150 000 people across the Ingwe municipality and part of Mzimkhulu, including families who cross from Lesotho.
