If you cannot wait to see your usual doctor, nurse or healthcare provider, or you do not have one, go to an after hours or urgent care medical centre. They can help you with things like bad cuts, sprains or breaks, minor head injuries, or if you are feeling really sick. You do not need an appointment but might have to wait.
Instead of visiting the doctor in person, you can have an appointment over the phone or online.
You do not need to be enrolled to use some of them. They are a good option if your usual doctor or nurse cannot fit you in.
These appointments usually take place through a video app or a phone call. There will be a cost.
Ka Ora Telecare is an after-hours video and over-the-phone health service for people living in or visiting rural communities. It is free to speak to a nurse. All appointments are free for tamariki under 14 years old.
For inpatient enquiries:
Please note we can only give out information about the ward a particular patient is in and their general condition.
