Only a physician can refer a patient to the Home Healthcare Service. A referral can be from:
• An HMC facility
• Primary health center
Step 1: Visit your primary healthcare provider
(Primary Health Care Corporation or a clinic in
HMC). Your primary care doctor will refer you to
Home Healthcare if homecare is required.
• Referrals from PHCC health centers are made
automatically
• Referrals from within HMC are made
automatically
Step 2: Once your referral has been received by
HMC, you will be sent an SMS acknowledging
receipt.
Step 3: When an appointment becomes
available you will be contacted with the date,
time and location. Once processed, you will also
receive an appointment notification by SMS.
Step 4: You will receive an appointment
reminder SMS five days before your
appointment and another SMS one day before.
For further information regarding the service the Referral Management Team can be contacted
Sunday – Thursday from 7am to 3pm on 4439 5165 or 4439 8562
