Te Whatu Ora Southern is continuing to expand access to outpatient telehealth appointments, making it easier for people to connect with their healthcare team without needing to travel.

Where appropriate, you may now be able to attend your appointment by phone or video—saving time, reducing travel costs, and improving access to care, especially for those in rural areas or with busy schedules.

If you have an upcoming outpatient appointment at the hospital, talk to hospital staff about whether an appointment via phone or video call could be an option for you.
