INTRODUCING BABYLINE
Parents are often confronted with a variety of children’s
health issues – particularly in the first three years. To
educate and support Bonitas moms and dads and to ensure
their benefits last longer, we’ve introduced Babyline on all
our options from 1 January 2017.
What is Babyline?
Babyline is a 24-hour children’s health advice line. Parents can
contact Babyline 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a
year. Calls are answered by paediatric trained nurses under
specialist supervision. It strives to give parents peace of mind
and potentially save unnecessary trips to the ER or to provide
anxious parents with urgent healthcare advice to keep their
children safe and happy.
How does it work?
Parents or caregivers can simply call Babyline and they will
be put through to a registered nurse. Here, a nurse will ask
a series of questions depending on the concern raised by
the parent/caregiver. Thereafter the parent/caregiver will be
given professional advice as what to do next and whether
the symptoms are urgent enough to visit the ER or maybe
a specialist. If necessary, the nurse will advise who is the
most appropriate healthcare provider to see the child.
The following services are available:
• Home care advic e
• Clinic, primary care or GP referral for the
same day
• Clinic, primary care or GP referral for the next day
• Specialist referral
• After-hours care within the next 6 hours
• Immediate referral to ER
