Care needs assessment and booking an appointment at the health station

In health-related matters, you should primarily contact your health station:  

It is important that you only contact us through one channel, so that the channels do not become congested and we can serve you faster.

A health care professional will assess your symptoms and direct you to the appropriate professional where needed. In some cases, home care instructions or prescribing a medication is enough.

Emergency care

Emergency care is needed when a sudden illness, an injury or the worsening of a chronic illness requires immediate treatment while your health station is closed. In such cases, the assessment cannot be safely postponed to the next day  

See the instructions on going to the emergency services
