Mater provides experienced interpreters 24 hours a day, seven days a week in every language and offers this service free of charge to every clinic. Interpreters can be provided onsite, via telephone or via video remotely.
Interpreter services are available and can be organised by the nurse caring for you.

To ensure your medications are managed safely while in hospital, a Mater Pharmacist is available to review medications that you have been taking at home. Please ensure that you have all your medications with you in their original containers and any current prescriptions. Or, if you take many regular medications, please request a medication list from your local pharmacy and bring this too.
