"Emergency services in Uruguay are generally reliable and efficient. In the event of an emergency, the best way to call for an ambulance is to dial 911. This number is free and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The operator will ask for the location of the emergency and dispatch the appropriate emergency services," said a member in Uruguay.

"We are unsure about the emergency services first hand as we have not needed them. However; according to friends and locals the best hospital in Paysandu is COMEPA as the quality of care is great often with English speaking nurses and doctors.
