After Hours/Emergency

In an emergency please call 111.

For after hours call 09 420 8400.

If you call after hours you will be put through to Ka Ora, our after-hours service where you will speak directly to a Kaiawhina or Nurse. The team will assess your health needs, and if needed, you can either have a telehealth appointment with a Clinician directly or you may choose to schedule an appointment later in the evening. Your health records will then be updated once your appointment is complete.
