Child and Adolescent Virtual Urgent Care Service
Our free Child and Adolescent Virtual Urgent Care Service connects parents with a virtual team of highly skilled emergency doctors and nurses who can assess and provide medical advice for your children, aged 6 months to 17 years.
It’s the worst feeling in the world. Caring for a sick child and not knowing what to do.
We’re here to help.
Attention: If your child’s condition worsens while you are waiting for your virtual consult, please contact triple zero (000) or go to your nearest emergency department.
