Manus Island
A general practitioner-led clinic at East Lorengau Transit Centre (ELTC) operating during business hours on weekdays and on Saturday mornings, providing primary and mental health services.
A 24-hour emergency medical evacuation service (note: the coroner in Hamid Khazeai’s inquest noted that this process needed to be clearer for all parties involved).
After-hours care was provided by Lorengau General Hospital.
People who required health care and specialist services unavailable at the ELTC clinic were referred to Lorengau General Hospital or transferred to Port Moresby.
Port Moresby
People who were transferred to Port Moresby for medical treatment were supported by a medical officer and nurse liaison service provided by IHMS during business hours Monday to Saturday. The liaison service was tasked to manage and coordinate the appointments with specialists in Port Moresby.
The services were supported by a medical officer, a counsellor, liaison officers and administrative staff.
