Medical facilities, both public and private, are of a high standard. Telephone numbers for doctors and hospitals are listed at the front of the white pages of local telephone directories. Should you need drugs or pharmaceutical supplies outside normal shopping hours, refer to ‘Urgent Pharmacies’ in the local telephone directory for the location of the nearest pharmacy or check with your hotel. Many hotels have doctors on call.

Long-staying visitors with a valid permit to stay for two or more years are entitled to health care services on the same basis as New Zealand citizens. There is a reciprocal health agreement with the UK, which entitles short-term British visitors to publicly funded health treatment. They will receive free treatment as a hospital inpatient, but must pay some charges for any services provided by outpatients and private doctors.

Comprehensive medical insurance is strongly recommended before travelling to cover any additional charges. If you intend to participate in adventure activities, such as bungee jumping or white water rafting, you should ensure that your travel insurance covers these types of activities.
