There are lots of benefits to enrolling with a general practice:

• Enrolling is free and easy
• Although you may have to pay for consultations, if you’re enrolled with a general practice your care will be subsidised so consultation fees will be lower
• Having a regular general practice means your healthcare team can get to know you and your medical history
• This means they can better support you to stay healthy and well in ways that work for you
• If you need extra support to stay healthy and well, your general practice can refer you to specialist healthcare services that can help.

Some things to think about when you look for general practice are whether the practice is taking new patients, the services it offers, the fees it charges, and whether it’s located in a convenient area for you. You can find this information on HealthPoint.

If you need urgent care, accident and urgent medical services can provide you with medical and nursing care without an appointment. These services may be provided alongside general practice services or at dedicated accident and urgent care clinics. The HealthPoint website provides up-to-date information about general practices and accident and urgent care services in Northland.
