John Flynn expands Courtesy Bus service to Club Banora & Twin Towns

May 26, 2011

John Flynn Hospital is pleased to announce the expansion of the existing courtesy bus service to now provide a southern courtesy bus service between John Flynn, Club Banora and Twin Towns Services Clubs.

The new service commenced last week and is a wonderful addition to the existing courtesy bus service which runs between John Flynn and Palm – Beach Currumbin RSL.  Patients and visitors are able to park in the services clubs carparks and catch the shuttle bus to the hospital which runs hourly from 7:30am to 5:00pm from Monday to Friday.

Hospital CEO, Mr Greg Jenke said, "We are delighted to provide this expansion to the existing courtesy bus service which we commenced less than one year ago.  As we continue to develop our medical, surgical, day surgery and outpatients services in answer to the growing need of the community we could see that a courtesy bus service was an added advantage to the hospital services.

“This expansion would not be possible without the generous support of Palm – Beach Currumbin RSL, who have loaned the hospital  one of their buses to run the Currumbin service.  The bus has dual signage of both John Flynn and the RSL and is another display of two community businesses working together to provide a much needed service for this area.” Greg said.

As well as the bus service, the hospital has recently completed another 114 carparking bays situated at the entrance to the hospital campus.
