Urgent Care

Goals 

We’re com­mit­ted to pro­vid­ing urgent, unex­pect­ed, non-life threat­en­ing care that is based on peo­ples’ expe­ri­ences, that is:

• con­sumer centred
• achieved by col­lab­o­rat­ing with the rel­e­vant health­care professionals
• results in clin­i­cal­ly appro­pri­ate care at the right place in the right timeframe
• links the con­sumer into appro­pri­ate fol­low up services.

Our aims are to improve access to urgent care for:

• con­sumers aged over 75
• those suf­fer­ing from men­tal health emergencies
• peo­ple liv­ing in rur­al areas who require ser­vices in metro areas.

We’ll do this by col­lab­o­rat­ing with rel­e­vant health­care pro­fes­sion­als to find the right care in the right place at the right time.
