Register your interest to volunteer in an evacuation centre

Healthy North Coast is working closely with the Department of Community and Justice (DCJ) and the Local Health Districts to assess the health needs of people staying at evacuation centres.

Ideally, anyone needing medical or mental health support during evacuation would access telehealth services or leave the evacuation centre to attend clinics or services that are still open and can maintain quality and patient safety at their normal premises.

At this stage remuneration is not available, but will be considered as part of ongoing consultation with the relevant NSW government agencies. Thank you to those dedicated GPs and nurses who have already volunteered.

Please note, DCJ has requested that health professionals do not attend evacuation centres without coordinating their attendance first through this EOI process.
