Information about the service

Our health stations and the Central Hospital emergency clinic will help you when you fall ill suddenly or have an accident.

We treat patients in order of urgency.

We treat emergency patients 24 hours a day. On weekdays, you should go to the urgent care of a health station; otherwise you should go to the emergency clinic at the North Karelia Central Hospital.

Do the following

  • In life-threatening situations, call 112. If you are unable to make a call, send a text message to the Emergency Response Centre in the North Karelia region, tel. +358 40 751 7816.
  • If you need urgent care, call the health station using the service number, or call the Medical Helpline 116 117. You will talk to a nurse who assesses your need for emergency care based on your injury or symptom. The nurse will give you care instructions and tell you what to do.
