We know visiting hospital can be an overwhelming experience and we want to make navigating our site easier.
CUH Directions is for patients and visitors.
The mobile app will help you find your way around Addenbrooke’s and the Rosie hospitals.
It helps you find your way to:
- clinics
- wards
- other facilities on our campus.
It has links to:
- key hospital phone numbers
- car parking information
The app also provides instructions showing you how to get to Addenbrooke’s and the Rosie by car, bike, public transport or on foot.
So how does it work?
Plot in your start and end point. The app will map out an illustrated route around the hospitals. Photographs of corridors and key landmarks on the journey help you to see your route in advance. The text instructions can be increased in size and also work with screen readers.
The app was the result of a patient-led project in the Trust’s Outpatient Experience Group and was funded Addenbrooke’s Charitable Trust.
