This morning at Royal Park old Pt road medical centre while waiting for my blood test , due to covid it is compulsory to wear a mask , there were 2 people not wearing masks but she allowed them in, also the chair doesn't get cleaned between patients and if you don't sign in with the sa gov covid app you sign in on a paper copy and that is the same pen everyone before you used , I made sure I used their sanitiser to wash the chair .

Absolutely NO parking at Mile End collection centre/laboratory. Located on the busy Sir Donald Bradman Drive at Mile End and inside a huge old complex along with 15 to 20 other businesses all crammed in together. Cars are only allowed to park in allocated spaces of which Abbott Pathology have less than a handful. Parking inspectors are constantly checking and even clamping vehicles that don't pay attention to the confusing, worn out, faded signage. Unless you're catching the bus (bus stop is located directly out the front of the building) then do yourself a favour and don't even bother to go there
