Hearing Loss and Hearing Aids
Covid 19
Level 3 Rules
Level 3
Under alert level 3 some face-to-face appointments may be provided for urgent care appointments, but only so long as clinicians can take appropriate measures to manage public health risks.
Our hearing aid suppliers are still operating a repair service, so we can still send and receive aids via courier services
Clinicians are expected to use a high level of clinical judgement when considering whether a patient meets the urgent criteria for a
face to-face consultation.
This means that we may be able to see you to service your hearing aids following the level 3 guidelines
Mask must be worn
Maintain a 2 m distance between us
Your clinician may wear some form of PPE – such as surgical masks and gloves
I will call into the office every other day to check mail/ phone messages, deal with courier packages (incoming and outgoing)
Please contact me if you wish to attend in Hamilton during level 3 restrictions
Phone: 07 853 7874 and leave a voice message

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

Poll: Have you ever tried learning a language?
Hannah Westbury likes to chat with customers at her checkout - so much so that she’s learning sign language for one regular.
Paeroa-based Westbury has worked in Woolworths for the past seven years and moved to checkout a year ago.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
