What is 1813 and when do you need it?
1813 is the emergency service for citizens who need medical help outside their own doctor's opening hours or for sudden health problems. They can advise you and help you find the right treatment, whether you need an urgent medical check-up, an assessment of your symptoms or a visit to an emergency clinic.
Why are wait times important?
The waiting time at 1813 gives an indication of how quickly you can get through for a healthcare assessment. During busy times - such as weekends, evenings or holidays - it can be extra busy, which can result in longer waiting times.
By keeping an eye on the wait time, you can better plan whether you need to contact 1813 right away or if you can wait until a time when the phones aren't as busy.
