What are emergency services like in Japan?
When we asked members about emergency services in Japan, they wrote...
"You for an ambulance by dialing 119. Tokyo is a huge city so I cannot give a recommendation on the best hospitals, as there are a lot of hospitals to choose from and they vary in their care and speciality. I would advise someone to find a hospital that provides English support if they are not comfortable communicating solely in Japanese," said another expat in Tokyo, Japan.
"Emergency services in Japan are highly efficient and reliable. In the event of an emergency, the best way to call for an ambulance is to dial the emergency number 119. This number is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is free of charge. When calling, it is important to provide the operator with as much information as possible, such as the exact location of the emergency, the type of emergency, and any other relevant information. The operator will then dispatch an ambulance to the scene as quickly as possible," wrote a member who made the move to Japan.
