This is 1177

Call the 1177 helpline if you need advice when you are ill or injured.

Your call will be answered by a nurse. You can choose to speak Swedish or English. In some regions, you can also get help in other languages.

The nurse can give you advice on how to manage your condition. If necessary, they can tell you where to go for care.

For the whole family

You can also call if a child or relative is ill. There is no charge for using the 1177 hotline. You will only be charged for the cost of the call.

Your information is protected
