SouthCare

An operating arm of the South Taranaki Medical Trust is a family based practice with the main emphasis on preventative health. With it’s vibrant team of doctors, nurses and administration staff there is always a feeling of family and support.

Location

The practice is located right next door to the local hospital, just a fifty metre walk across the driveway and is only a two minute drive from the town centre.

The building was purpose built and opened in October 2005. It has very modern facilities and is fully air-conditioned.

Computerised

SouthCare is fully computerised with a Patient Management System (Medtech 32).  This is the most widely used PMS system in New Zealand.

The practice is a member of the Midlands Health Network and receives funding from the government per enrolled patient.

The patients also make a co-payment at the time of consultation.
