In our article about bringing a backpack to Disney World (or not), I talked about the first aid stations in the Disney parks. If you forgo a backpack or leave it in a locker, you may be without Ibuprofen, cough drops or bandages when you need them most.
Each park has a first aid station that you can visit whether you’re treating a headache or have a more serious emergency. Here’s where they are and how to find them using the My Disney Experience app.
Where Is Magic Kingdom First Aid?
The first aid center in the Magic Kingdom is between the Crystal Palace and Casey’s Corner. As you walk into the park and down Main Street, those are on your left, at the end of Main Street. (For a primer on Main Street in the Magic Kingdom, check out this blog post.)
Where Is Epcot First Aid?
In Epcot, the first aid station is located inside the Odyssey Pavilion. That’s the large building between the World Showcase and World Celebration / World Discovery.
The Odyssey Pavilion is along the pathway into and out of the World Showcase that’s the only other entrance/exit other than the main one. That pathway puts you right near the Mexico pavilion.
Note that you won’t find “Odyssey Pavilion” on the My Disney Experience map — that building doesn’t seem to have a name. If you search for the first aid or baby care center, though, it’ll show up.
Where Is First Aid in Hollywood Studios?
In Hollywood Studios, the first aid center is right near the entrance. After walking into the park, look to your left. It’s about lined up with the Crossroads of the World stand, which has the tall structure with Mickey on top.
Where Is First Aid in Animal Kingdom?
The Animal Kingdom first aid station is on Discovery Island. It’s located next to the Starbucks location, called Creature Comforts.
How To Find First Aid With the My Disney Experience App
If you’re in a park and need to find your way to first aid, you can use the My Disney Experience app for directions. There are two ways to do this. The first is to get step-by-step directions from your current location. The second is to see the first aid station pin on a map to give you a general idea of where it is.
Option 1: Get walking directions from your location to the first aid center
Open the My Disney Experience app and enter “first” in the Search Bar at the top. Click First Aid, which should be the first result.
Choose the Get Directions option.
Select the first aid station you need.
On this page, you’ll enter your starting location so you can get directions to the first aid station you chose. If you’re in the park, your location should auto-populate. You can also type it in. As you enter a location, options will show up — choose the correct one.
Next, you’ll see a highlighted path that leads from your location to the first aid station. If you need more detailed, step-by-step instructions, click See Walking Directions on the bottom.
You’ll get step-by-step directions to the first aid station. If you’re in the park, you should be able to view the map live as you walk.
Option 2: View first aid locations on a map
To see the general location of the first aid station in a particular park, you can pull up the map on the My Disney Experience app. Open the app and enter “first” in the Search Bar at the top. Click First Aid.
Choose the Find on Map option.
You’ll see a zoomed-out map of Disney World, which will look like this:
Zoom in to see the correct park up close. The first aid station will have a location pin near it. The closer you zoom, the more specific the location will be.
