#7119Emergency Telephone Consultation Center

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has introduced the Emergency Telephone Consultation Center in the TFD as the contact place to assist residents who got sick or injured but are not sure if they should call an ambulance or go to the hospital on their own. The emergency telephone consultation team consisting of physicians, nurses and former EMT’s is stationed there around the clock to respond to callers’ inquiries.

Tokyo EMS Guide

The Tokyo EMS Guide gives you advice on if illnesses/injuries are urgent, if seeing a doctor is necessary, when to see a doctor and which clinical branch to visit by answering questions based on your conditions.

Since April in 2012, we have provided it as a booklet and on the TFD Website. (The Tokyo EMS Guide is made by the EMS Consultation Operation Group, the EMS Committee of the Tokyo Medical Association and supervised by the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine (JAAM).)
