Murray Royal Hospital (MRH) is located in the Kinnoull area of the City of Perth and within one mile of Perth City Centre, a distance that can be walked for most people in approximately 20 minutes, although there is a steep gradient up to the Hospital along Lochie Brae from Main Street which is the main access route for pedestrians and cyclists as well as those using public transport or travelling by car.

Accordig to The Courier, “Between January and November 2014, a total of 15 patients absconded from the general psychiatry wards on at least one occasion. The health board also revealed that between January 1 and December 18 there were seven instances, involving five patients, from Rohallion. The board said all patients who absconded were located and returned to the hospital.”
A spokeswoman for NHS Tayside said, “Incidents which are currently being recorded under the category of absconding are more likely to be a failure to return from an agreed time off the ward or out of the hospital…The Rohallion Secure Care Clinic…has both low and medium secure facilities. Patients are sometimes required to attend other hospital or dental appointments off-site and it is also a routine part of their rehabilitation programme to have accompanied and unaccompanied visits outside of the hospital to education and work placements.”
