Hospital
Information and service signs

Hospital

Shows the location or direction of a hospital; the Vienna model also asks drivers to take care and avoid unnecessary noise.

The sign identifies a nearby hospital or helps drivers find its entrance. The Vienna model asks drivers to take precautions near medical establishments, particularly to avoid unnecessary noise.

The Vienna model E,13a shows a white H on a blue square. In Great Britain, hospital direction signs use red for accident and emergency departments or urgent treatment centres, and blue for hospitals without accident and emergency facilities.
