The Nausori Health Centre will be undergoing renovations from today and will last for the next three months.

The Health Ministry says to accommodate this much-needed infrastructure work, temporary field hospital tents have been erected in the parking area to provide health care for anyone seeking health services at the hospital.

They say the health services that will be available at the field hospital tents are emergency services, general outpatient services, case reviews and dressings, and foot care services.

The Ministry adds that only emergency cases will be a priority after 8pm.

X-ray services and scan services have been shifted from their current site and will be conducted at the school health building beside the pharmacy department, while the laboratory services have been shifted to the Wainibokasi Hospital.

The Ministry says health services that will not shift and will continue to be provided from their current site include maternal and child health services, special outpatient services, family planning services and physiotherapy services.

People can access these services through the Wainibokasi Street (Nausori Town Council) side gates and the Field Hospital Tent through the Nausori Old Market Car Park as there will be no parking in Nausori Health Centre and its vicinity.

The Nausori Maternity Unit, Dental Unit, pharmacy, administrative and counselling services will operate as normal.

The Ministry is advising members of the public that the renovation will progress for the next three months, and they will ensure that there are minimal disruptions to the provision of health care services from the hospital.
