Do you need help in the event of a serious accident – someone is seriously or even critically injured? Or do you need help because someone is suddenly experiencing severe symptoms and you are concerned for their life, for example if you suspect a heart attack or stroke? Then don't hesitate...

... and call the emergency services on 112. The emergency control centre will then alert the necessary emergency services for you.

Relevant questions to ask when making an emergency call:

• Where did the incident occur?
• What happened?
• How many people are affected?
• What type of illness/injury/damage is involved?
• Wait for further questions! (Do not end the call without being asked to do so!)
• (Who is reporting?)

If you have minor health problems, please call the central number for registered doctors: 116 117.

There you will receive the help you need quickly and easily. Specially trained staff will make an initial assessment, refer you to a doctor's surgery or, outside of consultation hours, refer you to an emergency surgery (‘emergency practice’) of the medical on-call service near your place of residence/holiday destination.

At the Husum Clinic, the walk-in-clinic is located on the 2nd floor. At the Niebüll Clinic, you will find the walk-in-clinic with a separate entrance on the ground floor.

Examples of minor illnesses include:

• Cold symptoms (without severe breathing difficulties)
• Mild, short-lived abdominal pain
• Feeling unwell
• Pain that has been present for a long time

The emergency rooms at hospitals are exclusively for ‘real’ emergencies that require immediate medical treatment.

For accidents at work, school and on the way to work, all four locations of the hospital have so-called ‘D-Arzt-Ambulanzen’ (emergency rooms for accidents at work), where those affected can receive outpatient treatment. In addition, the Husum Clinic participates in the so-called ‘Verletzungsartenverfahren’ (injury type procedure) and the Niebüll Clinic participates in the inpatient ‘Durchgangsarztverfahren’ (accident insurance consultant procedure) of the German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV), so that serious occupational and school accidents are treated on an inpatient basis in both hospitals.
