Timely paediatric review after your child returns home.

 

Coming home after an emergency department presentation, Virtual ED consultation, Urgent Care or hospital admission can leave families with questions. You may be unsure whether your child is recovering as expected, how long to continue treatment or what should happen next.

​​

QuickStix provides timely follow-up for children who need review after recent hospital or emergency care.

​​

Depending on the reason for follow-up, your child may need either a SNAC or RAP appointment.

​

QuickStix is not an emergency service. If your child is becoming more unwell, follow the return instructions provided by their treating team, attend your nearest emergency department or call 000 in an emergency.
