In case of medical emergency, you have to rely on your own means to get to a hospital as there is no ambulance service available.

In emergencies dial 9999 for Police assistance.
Those with medical conditions (e.g., diabetes) should wear medical alert tags and carry a list of generic names of medications related to their condition.
If injected medications are advised, ask if there is an oral formulation that you can take instead. If injections are necessary, insist on individually wrapped, disposable needles.
Many pharmacies offer round the clock service and provide a variety of prescription and over the counter drugs. Check the local newspaper or the English speaking evening news on TV for pharmacies on rotational 24 hour duty.
Opticians and optometrists are readily available in the capital area and maintain regular business hours.
