Hospitals and medical centres need to provide a range of parking options, and without proper car park management, parking spaces can be severely underutilised.
Smart Parking has experience in delivering working solutions to hospitals and medical centres that cater to the different needs of patients, staff and visitors.
Smart Parking has experience in providing a customised and easy-to-manage car park solutions to a range of different hospitals and medical centres.
A common problem at larger sites is severe underutilisation of certain car parks and overcrowding in other areas. Staff requirements have to cater for the different schedules and shifts of doctors, nurses, surgeons and other hospital staff. Order can also be brought to visitor parking, which comes with its own unique set of requirements.
Smart Parking can deliver a working solution where the configuration of a car park can be made flexible and thus accommodate parking requirements for shift workers, rostered staff and staff with regular hours.
As well as bringing order to staff car parks, we can configure visitor parking to cater for a range of requirements including limited mobility needs, emergency parking, longer term parking and visitor hours influx, taking the stress out of finding and paying for parking.
For smaller medical centres in the UK we can also offer our camera-based ANPR system, and take the headache of managing a car park off your hands entirely.
Thanks to our system being made up of components that all work in with each other, we can provide a single solution to a large site with different requirements in different areas.
We offer a range of vehicle detection sensors that are connected to a system that includes LED directional signage and overhead indicators to inform motorists about available parking spaces, all managed through our SmartCloud dashboard.
Once installed, operators can manage the parking needs of their site using the visibility that the SmartCloud dashboard provides. This not only shows live parking events, but gives parking management detailed site information and visibility of parking spaces, meaning each individual bay usage can be regulated.
As well, targeted reports can be generated so a clear view of parking trends and utilisation can be produced, and informed management decisions can be made.
We offer a range of sensors to suit the needs of different sites. These robust and scalable devices monitor bays and relay live status information to SmartCloud.
Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR), also known as licence plate recognition (LPR), is one of the most cost-effective and efficient ways to manage an off-street car park.
For parking sites where customers are either expected to pay for their parking or validate their vehicles presence on site we can provide vehicle access system hardware machines.
The implementation of a well-run car park results in increased compliance and fewer instances of unauthorised parking – meaning that valuable parking space is maximised for genuine visitors.
Smart Parking can provide mobile patrols where specially trained wardens actively monitor car park sites for security, aide and compliance.
Our app, SmartParking, shows motorists clear, real-time guidance and payment and our embeddable map allows visitors to pre-plan their journey.
These provide an IoT gateway in a single unit, allowing hundreds of different devices to connect and providing areas of open connectivity called SmartZones.
Using our SmartCloudAPI interface, our tailored service pack provides you access to real-time information and events on your site.
These display real-time information around space availability and car park capacity, as well as providing directions to encourage traffic flow.
Developed in-house, SmartCloud is our sophisticated, powerful and innovative web-based service platform that gathers and processes information.

Smart Parking provide our car park management service in hundreds of sites across the UK. We recognise that every site has unique requirements. We conduct a thorough up-front analysis with the customer in which we get to the bottom of the parking issues that exist on a site, and we follow this with a site survey to obtain deeper technical insight.
This collaborative approach allows us to recommend the best method of management and installation of the hardware best suited to that site.
