More than 250 general practitioner (GP) clinics, including 61 telemedicine providers, will be open at various times on Friday 1 September 2023.
2. The list of GP clinics and their operating hours can be found on the Ministry of Health’s website. Members of the public should first call the clinics to confirm the availability and timing of services, and make appointments as needed before heading to the clinics.
3. We encourage those who feel unwell during the public holiday to visit their GP or a 24-hour clinic for minor conditions, and to seek medical treatment at a hospital’s Accident & Emergency (A&E) department only for serious or life-threatening emergencies, such as chest pain, breathlessness and uncontrollable bleeding.
4. To ensure that the 995 Emergency Medical Services are able to provide swift conveyance for those with emergency conditions, individuals who are not experiencing life-threatening emergencies should refrain from calling 995.
