Pacific Islands nurse specialist service
The Pacific Islands nurse specialist service is designed to assist Pacific people returning home after a hospital stay and to provide nursing follow-up. We aim to prevent the need for hospital admission by offering community care and home visits. There is ongoing contact with GPs and primary-based (community) services focusing on healthcare and education.
The service is available Monday to Friday.
Nurses work with the local Pacific Islands Trust, where other support and nurse-led clinics are available.
Due to the risk that fresh flowers pose to patients with respiratory disorders, there may be restrictions in place. If you are bringing flowers in or using florist delivery services, check with reception.
We provide 24-hour language support in more than 55 languages, including New Zealand Sign Language. We can support you in hospital, or if you need to see another healthcare provider.
Interpretation services can be provided face-to-face, by video or by phone.
How to book an interpreter
If you have a hospital appointment or have been admitted to the hospital, let a member of our staff know that you need an interpreter.
If you need to see another healthcare provider, such as a GP, let them know as soon as possible that you need an interpreter.
Interpretation services are free of charge for patients attending publicly funded appointments at healthcare facilities, either in the public hospital system or the community. This is subject to patient eligibility, such as residency.
All staff are trained to understand and respect diversity. Many have undertaken additional sign language, cultural and linguistic training.
The hospital and grounds are all smoke and vape free areas. If you are a patient we can help with nicotine replacement therapy.
