Doctor’s and nurse’s appointment services are available at all well-being stations and centres in the wellbeing services county.

Book an appointment via telephone.

Contact information

Select your municipality from the drop-down menu to see the appropriate contact details.

Background and legislation

Nurses give health advice, wound care and vaccinations and remove stitches, etc. If necessary, the nurse can refer the patient to a doctor.

Non-urgent treatment must be provided within a set period. During business hours, patients must be able to contact a health and social services centre immediately by telephone or visiting the centre. Calls are returned without delay, usually on the same day.

The need for treatment may be initially assessed already on the phone but always during the same day. The necessary treatment must be organised within a reasonable time which means within 14 days.
