Our Emergency Department is open at Middlemore hospital
Our health and medical facilities are essential services and this includes our hospitals and emergency departments (ED).
The Middlemore ED remains open 24/7 for those who need emergency care.
We’re doing things slightly differently when you come in and that’s to help keep everyone safe; so you will be screened prior to entering ED and then directed to the appropriate place or staff member to look after you.
Our Emergency Department is open as usual so if you are hurt or unwell please come in and see us.
For minor illness or injury, please still phone Healthline (0800 611 116) or your family doctor and follow their advice.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
