What are emergency services like in New Zealand?

Answer this Question

When we asked members about emergency services in New Zealand, they wrote...

"Emergency services in New Zealand are highly efficient and reliable. In the event of an emergency, the best way to call for an ambulance is to dial 111, which is the national emergency number. This number is free to call from any phone, including landlines and mobile phones. When calling, it is important to provide as much information as possible, such as the exact location of the emergency, the type of emergency, and any other relevant information. The operator will then dispatch the appropriate emergency services to the scene," commented one expat who made the move to New Zealand.
