This is from one of our lovely patients who always pops in to give us beautiful flowers from his garden! We thought it deserved an appreciation post 🥰💐
Orewa Medical Centre updated their business hours.
Labour Day |
We will be closed Monday the 26th of October in celebration of Labour day.
If you require urgent medical care please call 111 or report straight to Shore Care, Smales Farm, Takapuna, which is open 24/7 seven days a week - 0800 746 732.
LEVEL 1 UPDATE |
As we are now in level one restrictions are easing, however there are a few precautions to keep in mind.
Please DO NOT enter the practice if you have flu/cold symptoms unless advised otherwise by one of our nursing team or your GP. Doing so would be endangering our staff and patients.
Masks - Although masks are not enforced in the practice in Level 1, we will require you to wear one if you have any respiratory symptoms including sore throat, cough, runny nose, fever, or shortness of breath.
If you do not have flu/cold symptoms still keep in mind that wearing masks are helpful for prevention or spread of any viruses.
Appointments - When booking for a face to face consultation please be aware that reception will continue to ask the question of whether you have any respiratory symptoms or not. It is important to let reception know so they can help you accordingly. Remember we permanently have the option of phone or video consultations so alternatively, reception are able to offer you a phone or video consultation with your GP.
Please be aware, that if you arrive into the practice for your appointment, reception will follow the screening process once again. This is to make sure everyone can be managed safely and effectively.
Be mindful of others around you when you are feeling unwell and remember the best place to be when you have these symptoms is at home!
As always, keep up the hand washing and kindness.
Since we're finally out of the cold it's time to hit the beach and make the most of the sunny weather whilst doing it safely!
More people die in New Zealand from skin cancer each year than die on our roads. Most skin cancers are caused by harmful exposure to ultra-violet (UV) radiation from the sun's rays, so we all need to be SunSmart, especially during Daylight Saving months when UV rates are higher.
That means using sun protection (Slip, slop, slap, wrap) when we’re working outdoors and enjoying the sun at the beach!
