Emergency service today: Where you can find medical help in Ostprignitz-Ruppin

What happens in the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district when it comes to medical emergencies? On August 14, 2025, various offers will be available that can also help outside of normal office hours. It is important to know where to turn in urgent but not life-threatening cases. There is a medical on-call service, which you can call at the telephone number 116 117 reached.

Many patients go to hospital instead of using 116 117 because they are unsure whether their symptoms really constitute an emergency. A look at the healthcare system shows that hospital emergency departments have to defend themselves against overload that results from these decisions. Peter M., who works in an emergency room, expresses his frustration about the many non-acute complaints that are often on the agenda, while real emergencies are put on the back burner. Clear information for citizens could help here.
