After-Hours Care

After-hours arrangements may vary by facility and by provider. Residents and families should first contact the Residential Aged Care Facility for urgent clinical concerns.

Where supported, after-hours care may be provided through the resident’s GP, the facility’s usual after-hours pathway, or an external after-hours service.

In an emergency, call 000.

Need help after hours?

Speak with the Residential Aged Care Facility first so they can arrange the appropriate care pathway.

Where local GP or facility pathways are not available, 13SICK may be used as an alternative back-up after-hours option, subject to availability and eligibility.
