"Emergency services in Nassau are provided by the government and private organizations, including the police, fire department, and ambulance services. To call for an ambulance, you can dial the local emergency number, which is 911 or 919. These numbers will connect you to the emergency operators who will dispatch the appropriate service to your location. It is essential to provide clear and accurate information about your location and the nature of the emergency to ensure a timely response," explained one expat living in Nassau, Bahamas.
"We live on the west end of the Island which is close to the Lyford Cay Hospital (Private) and the Doctor's Clinic (Private). Both the public hospital and the Doctor's Hospital are in the downtown area and not that far of a drive. I have used all three of the private clinics and hospitals without any problems and have found the care and service to be more then adequate. I have not used the public hospital. All of them are serviced by an ambulance service as well," said another in Nassau, Bahamas.
