In addition to offering the broad range of minor illnesses and injury services which are synonymous with SwiftCare, the new facility will also offer health assessment and health coaching with a focus on intervention and prevention services; primary care services for those attending the clinic,  as well as physiotherapy, radiology and orthopaedic follow up.
Speaking today, Dr Lynda Keaveney, Vhi 360 Health Centre, Clinical Director said: “Our mission at Vhi is to help our customers and patients lead longer, stronger, healthier lives.
“We have a proven track record in introducing innovative, customer-focussed services which helps to provide a more efficient and better patient experience.  We have been consistent in our efforts to grow and add to our services, responding to and anticipating customer needs with a view to delivering on our mission.
“Our investment in the new Vhi 360 Health Centre in Limerick will help to bring more services to our customers – not only for when they have a minor illness or injury but also to help them to manage their overall health and wellbeing.” she said.
“This is a unique time for the Irish health system, and we know that the COVID-19 pandemic has meant that some people are delaying seeking access to healthcare that they need.
“Today, we want to remind our customers and patients that our services are still available to them. In many cases we can treat conditions via our telemedicine service online so customers don’t have to leave their homes.
“If an in-person consultation is required at this time, we’re running an appointment service so patients can be guaranteed safe movement through the Centre. We look forward to welcoming customers from Limerick and beyond over the coming weeks and months.” she added.
To manage access at this time and for patient safety services are appointment-based. To speak to someone at the Vhi 360 Health Centre in Limerick call 01 448 2450.
The Vhi clinical team will assess your query and direct your call so treatment can be provided remotely if possible or by appointment at the Centre if needed.
