As of the beginning of September, the Myllypuro Health and Well-being Centre offers non-urgent appointments in the evenings at 16:00–18:00. The evening appointments must be booked in advance. The extended service hours apply to the health station, dental care and physiotherapy.
Health station appointments after 16:00 are intended for the clients of the Myllypuro, Kontula and Kivikko Health Stations and provided at the Myllypuro Health Station. The service hours of the Kontula and Kivikko Health Stations remain unchanged. They are open on weekdays from 8:00 to 16:00.
The dental clinic serves the whole city via the centralised appointment booking service.
“Surveys conducted among the customers indicated the need for longer opening hours,” says Lars Rosengren, Project Manager responsible for the planning of the Myllypuro Health and Well-being Centre.
“Evening appointments make it easier for working people to use the social and health care services,” says Leena Turpeinen, Director of Health and Substance Abuse Services.
“We aim to have health and well-being centres in different parts of the city to serve Helsinkians with extended hours,” Turpeinen continues.
Emergency services after 16:00 are still being provided at Malmi and Meilahti and, for young people under 16, the New Children’s Hospital.
