An astonished healthcare worker can be seen in the footage at the reception desk capturing the heartwarming moment on her phone.

The meandering macropod took a short break before continuing through the corridors of the Hamilton Base Hospital.
Following a few minutes of fun, the animal bolted out the automatic doors back into the wild.
The town, with a population of just less than 10,000, is also home to the eastern barred bandicoot, an endangered rabbit-sized marsupial that is the basis for the popular video game character Crash Bandicoot.
