Walk-In service 2 and 3 Jan 2020
Due to the bushfires our practice will offer limited, walk-in services only on 2 and 3 Jan 2020. The practice is without power and IT and many of our team are unable to work due to the distaster situation.
Doctors will strive to see anyone who requires attention on a WALK IN basis only. There will be NO appointments and we cannot advise on waiting times. Patients will be triaged and seen on a priority basis.
We will continue to monitor the situation during the coming days and issue advice when possible. Please understand the practice may have to close without warning due to the fires and road closures.
Queen Street Medical Centre Broulee will be closed 2 and 3 January.
Message to our staff and doctors: Please attend work only when it is safe for you to do so. The safety of you and your family is paramount and our thoughts and wishes are with you.

Kate, who holds qualifications and experience in paediatric nursing, is keen for parents and carers to be aware that infants and children are at greater risk of becoming dehydrated.
