Covid -update July 2024
Covid infections continue to be present in our community. We encourage anyone feeling unwell to do a RAT test and follow the Ministry of Health guidelines.
From 1st July if you test positive for Covid and are eligible for antivirals please phone us so we can arrange a phone consult for you.
Unfortunately due to the removal of funding by the Ministry of Health this will mean a consultation fee will apply and we will no longer be proactively contacting patients that we receive a positive RAT test result for.
You can find information about eligibility for antivirals at:-https://info.health.nz/conditions-treatments/infectious-diseases/covid-19/antiviral-medicines/.
We have RAT tests and face mask available at the practice at no cost to you
- please phone us to access these.
If you test positive with a RAT test please lodge your result online at
https://mycovidrecord.health.nz/ or Call: 0800 222 478 (choose option 3).
If you get sick between the time you made your appointment and the day of you appointment please phone us for advice so we can triage and manage your appointment.
Face Masks are no longer mandatory when in the practice but we ask you to wear one if you are unwell.
