Free consultations at 16 local clinics over Easter

The Team from Counties Manukau Health

We need your support whaanau to keep ED free for those who really need it. We're providing free consultations to Counties Manukau residents who need urgent care (that’s not life-threatening) at a participating clinic within our rohe from today until Easter Monday, 5 April. The fee waiver includes presentations for medical consultations, ACC co-payments, and repeat prescriptions however, fees outside the consultation can still be charged by the clinic. Check out our website for more information and a list of the 16 clinics: bit.ly...

Remember whaanau – please don’t leave it too late to seek health care if you need it. Your local doctor is the place to go when you’re sick or injured. They will provide you with medical advice, prescriptions and help you to manage any long-term conditions. If you don’t have a family doctor, you can ask family and friends or you can find one in your area on Healthpoint: bit.ly... For more info, visit our website: bit.ly...
