Medical emergencies: complete guide, practical advice and useful numbers

Les urgences médicales requièrent une action rapide et efficace. En cas de situation critique, contactez immédiatement le 112 (numéro d’urgence européen).

L’évaluation initiale de la gravité détermine la prise en charge appropriée. Les urgences vitales comme un arrêt cardiaque, une hémorragie importante ou une perte de conscience nécessitent une intervention immédiate. Dans les services d’urgence, le tri permet de prioriser les cas les plus graves. La préparation aux urgences inclut la connaissance des gestes de premiers secours, la constitution d’une trousse d’urgence et la mise à jour régulière des informations médicales personnelles. Pour éviter l’engorgement des urgences, il est recommandé de consulter son médecin traitant ou d’appeler le 112 pour obtenir un avis médical avant de se rendre aux urgences pour des cas non vitaux.

Problems with our BCEE - Spuerkeess account

Dear members,

We have the sad duty to inform you that we were currently expecting a problem with our bank account with BCEE – Spuerkeess.

Unfortunately, you are not able to pay your contribution from your BCEE account to our account with BCEE!

However, you can pay your contribution from your BCEE account to one of our bank accounts with POst and/or BGL BNP Paribas.

We apologize for this inconvenience.

We are waiting for the BCEE to respond in order to resolve this technical problem.

Thank you for your understanding.

Membership fee adjustment for 2025

Dear member,

Our work would not be possible without financial support. We would like to thank the Ministry of Health and Social Security for its annual contribution, but this alone is not enough to finance all our activities. We are therefore also dependent on donations and membership fees. After 30 years, it will unfortunately be necessary in 2025 to adjust our contribution to the increased costs in order to continue our work be able to continue our work without restrictions. We hope for your understanding and your continued support in the interests of all patients.

For 2025, we are proposing a single membership fee of €50 per household.

We appreciate the trust you have placed in us and send you our best regards.

Your PVL team

Merry Christmas and a happy new year

Please note that our office will be closed during the holidays, from December 23rd 2024, until January 3rd, 2025 inclusive.
