What is the number to call an ambulance?

03112911103 - from any mobile or landline phone

Can I call in Russian?

Yes. Most ambulance operators speak Russian. The operator can invite a colleague to the phone if he realizes that he cannot cope with the language barrier.

What to say when calling an ambulance?

  • Name the symptoms. Don't think it over (Correct: foam at the mouth, eyes rolled up. Incorrect: foam from the mouth, eyes rolled up, I think it's epilepsy)
  • Name the child's full name, parent's full name, number of the child's birth certificate, series and number of the parent's passport
  • Name the date of birth of the child and the number of full years
  • Name the address: Street, house number, entrance, floor, intercom
  • Specify: entrance from the yard or from the street
  • If it will be difficult to find an apartment or enter the yard, meet an ambulance. Provided that your absence for 3-5 minutes will not scare the child

A team with a pediatrician will arrive. Even if the child's life is not in danger, the doctor will insist on hospitalization for a complete examination.

Therefore, in some cases it is better not to call an ambulance, but immediately go to one of the children's hospitals.
