Emergency Response

We have an emergency plan in place that allows us to respond to unexpected events that may disrupt our services, or put staff and patients at risk.

Our emergency response information is part of our business continuity plan.

In the event of a civil emergency we respond as directed by Civil Defence, emergency services, and Te Whatu Ora, to provide services to our community as required.

IMPORTANT: Emergency procedures must be accessible off site.

Copies of our emergency response documents are accessible off site, for use when we cannot access our usual systems.
