CARLOW EMERGENCY DOCTORS-ON-CALL COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

Caredoc - the Carlow Emergency Doctors-On-Call Company Limited By Guarantee - is an urgent out-of-hours family-doctor service that steps in when medical needs arise after normal surgery hours. Operating across a broad catchment that includes Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford, Waterford, South Tipperary, South Wicklow, Sligo, North Leitrim and West Cavan, Caredoc provides timely GP consultations for patients with pressing health concerns, ensuring that help is never far away.

The organisation's core offerings comprise an Out-of-Hours GP Service, a nurse-led Community Intervention Team that delivers care in patients' homes, and a specialised Maternity and Infant Care Scheme (with standard fees applying for out-of-hours visits unless a medical or GP-Visit Card is presented). Additional support includes mobile units for home visits and a dedicated deaf-texting service for those with hearing impairments. Caredoc advises patients to bring their medical card to avoid consultation charges and reminds the public that life-threatening emergencies should be directed to 999 or 112. Holiday and industrial-action notices are regularly updated to keep the community informed.
