Hospitals & Medical Help

Use 120 for an ambulance. Ask a hotel, local contact or nearby person to help call when language is a barrier.

Check before acting

Check the current screen, the conditions that may change and the fallback before making a critical decision.

For urgent medical help

Call 120 for an ambulance. If language is a barrier, ask a hotel desk, local contact, police officer or nearby person to call and state the exact address. Response times and capability vary by location, so this guide does not promise a nationwide arrival time.

Payment and insurance

Hospitals may request an initial deposit before treatment, even when the traveler has insurance. International cards are not accepted everywhere. Carry insurance details, a working payment method and access to emergency funds.

Medical decisions need professional help

Use current official travel-health guidance and contact your insurer as soon as practical. In a serious emergency, seek care immediately.
