Updated visitor policy at Middlemore Hospital
Visitor screening is no longer taking place at Middlemore Hospital and our other facilities as this is not required at Alert Level 1. We do ask whaanau if you could please use the NZ COVID Tracer app to scan our QR code each time you visit our hospital and clinics. This code will be displayed at the entrances to all our sites.
We also ask visitors to use hand gel when entering the hospital, adhere to our visiting policy, and to stay home and call Healthline on 0800 611 116 if you feel unwell. Here's one of our nurses Denyse with more information on our visitor policy.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
