COVID-19 update - Auckland is at alert level 1. 

When you come into our hospitals, please ensure you scan in using the COVID-19 tracer app and make use of the hand sanitiser. Please do not come in if you have COVID-19 symptoms.

Read our visitor policy for more information [PDF, 240 KB].

If you need directions in and around Starship Hospital, Auckland City Hospital or Greenlane Clinical Centre, ask one of our blue coat ambassadors - our friendly volunteers who are there to help you find your way around. There are information desks at key locations on both sites. And remember - the Auckland District Health Board has a smokefree policy that means smoking is not permitted anywhere within the hospital grounds.
