Q. What is #8000?
A. Nationwide pediatric emergency telephone consultation. A nurse or doctor listens to your symptoms and advises you to ``see a doctor now'' or ``wait until tomorrow''. Available at night and on holidays (also on weekday nights depending on the local government). A lifeline service that you should consult when in doubt.
Q. Tips for calling 119
A. ① “Is it a fire? Is it an emergency?” “It’s an emergency.” ② Address/marker ③ Symptoms and age ④ Contact information. Calmly and slowly. Many local governments are also making progress in providing English support in case of an emergency.
Q. The most dangerous thing to swallow is
A. Button batteries (risk of internal organ perforation), magnets (multiple objects can pinch internal organs), cigarettes, medicines, detergents, coins (choking), peanuts (airway obstruction). For these, call 119 immediately.
Q. I want to learn first aid
A. You can take a standard first aid course (3 hours, free) at the fire department. Learn AED, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and first aid. There is also an infant version. Multilingual courses for foreigners are also increasing.
Q. Pediatrics for sudden illness at night
A. ``Holiday night pediatric emergency center'' and ``family doctor's out-of-hours support'' in each region. If you don't know, you can get directions by dialing #8000 or 119. Find out about local medical institutions in advance.
