Halswellhealth allows team members to use Artificial Intelligence  (AI) to assist with clinical note taking.

We do not allow clinicians to use generative AI for clinical decision making.

Before introducing AI tools, we assess and mitigate the risks to ensure privacy and safety are protected. We comply with New Zealand legislation governing the use of AI.

We recognise that this is rapidly-evolving technology, and reassess our processes as needed.

If you do not wish us to use AI in your consultation, please advise your clinician.

COVID Vaccinations are now available at Halswellhealth

 Getting the flu vaccine is a great time to also check for and receive any recommended COVID-19 vaccines. Like influenza, COVID-19 is highly contagious and can lead to severe respiratory illness and complications in older people and those with underlying medical conditions. It remains a leading cause of infection related hospitalisations and deaths in Aotearoa New Zealand, particularly for older adults. Once or twice-yearly additional doses of COVID-19 vaccine are encouraged if older or at higher risk of getting sick from COVID-19. These are important because vaccine protection decreases over time, and the vaccine is updated regularly to match changes in the circulating COVID-19 virus. In 2026, the vaccine has been updated to target the LP.8.1 variant.
