Emergency service today: Important contact points for Saalekreis residents!
Today, October 10th, 2025, the citizens of the Saalekreis are well informed about the options available to them in the event of a medical emergency. How news.de reported, patients can call the statutory health insurance on-call service on 116 117 if their family doctor's practice is closed. This service is available for acute but not life-threatening complaints.
A problem that often arises is that many patients do not know where to go for urgent but not life-threatening problems such as a runny nose or headache. “It is crucial to use 116 117 and not to dial the emergency number 112,” explains family doctor Kristina S. Many misunderstand the situation and often go to the emergency room of a hospital, which frustrates the doctors treating there, as Peter M. reports from an emergency room. “We have to concentrate on real emergencies,” he says.
