Elderly New Zealanders, residing at home or aged care facilities, can gain instant access to highly qualified doctors in case of illness or accident or provide expert oversight for their carers.
We support the elderly.
EmergencyConsult supports aged care staff, elderly individuals, and all of us with aging loved ones by providing immediate access to a trusted New Zealand emergency doctor. We can be your first port of call in case of an accident or emergency or we can provide expert medical oversight to your usual care provider.
COVID-19 has taken a horrific toll where it has been present in aged care facilities. Many elderly New Zealanders felt isolated before the pandemic and unfortunately lockdowns, fear of community transmission, and news of our neighbours’ struggles to contain the virus has only exasperated that fear and sense of isolation. But we can be there (remotely) when you can’t. By registering with EmergencyConsult you can rest assured that your elderly parent, friend or relative has easy, fast access to experienced, friendly and professional emergency doctors at any time via video consultation.
We welcome individual registrations but we are also available to partner with aged care providers (including independent living villages, rest homes, respite care, hospices, and home based carers) to bridge gaps in emergency care or provide highly qualified medical oversight for nurses and carers. With EmergencyConsult on your team, your clients have access to rapid medical advice, get ‘seen’ immediately, and get the scripts or referrals they may need.
