Out-of-hospital

On 27 March 2017 the two ambulance services in NZ started implementing the nationally consistent out-of-hospital triage policy and regional destination policies. 

 

These guidelines aim to ensure major trauma patients are taken to a hospital which can best provide definitive care:

NZ Major Trauma Triage Policy

  • Guidelines for clinical care at a staging facility
  • New Zealand Major Trauma Triage Policy
  • Destination Policies

  • Major trauma destination policy Auckland and Northland areas
  • Major trauma destination policy Lower North Island area
  • Major trauma destination policy Midland area
  • Major trauma destination policy South Island area
  • C-Spine immobilisation policy
  • New Zealand Spinal Cord Injury Destination Policy
