Supervised RATs for priority populations
Priority populations are groups that have experienced adverse impacts or are considered at higher risk of the effects from COVID-19 outbreaks in New Zealand. They include Māori and Pacific communities and those living with disabilities.
Please view the Ministry of Health - COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Testing Guide: https://www.health.govt.nz/system/files/documents/pages/covid-19-rapid-antigen-testing-guide-20feb22.pdf
We offer supervised RATs testings via:
- Our packages of care (MSD) - as a wrap-around support for those isolating with COVID
- Delivery - please contact us to arrange
- Drive-thru - please contact us for an appointment and stay in your car when you arrive for testing
