MEDICAL DEPENDENCY
Would being without power be dangerous for your health?
If you or someone you’re living with;
- Is dependent on mains electricity for critical medical support (for example, for the use of medical equipment); and
- The loss of electricity could result in loss of life or serious harm…it’s important that you let us know.
Next steps:
If you think you are medically dependent you can download the form here or phone (09) 302 1500 Or email info@bosco.co.nz
Once you’ve told us:
- We’ll put you on our Medical Dependency Register. As long as you are on this register, we will not disconnect your power.
- You will need to show us proof of your medical condition or disability within 30 days of being registered (including information about why you need your power to stay connected)
- We’ll send you a form to fill out which your doctor must then sign.
You will still need to pay your power bills - and we can help you manage this.
