Answers
- Je belt de huisartsenpost (You call the out-of-hours GP service (huisartsenpost))

- Je wacht tot de school weer open is (You wait until school opens again)

Show the answer
✓ Correct answer: A. Je belt de huisartsenpost
Explanation: Buiten de openingstijden van de huisarts bel je de huisartsenpost. 112 is alleen voor levensgevaar.
Translation: You call the out-of-hours GP service (huisartsenpost)
Outside your GP's opening hours you call the huisartsenpost. 112 is only for life-threatening situations.
Outside your GP's opening hours you call the huisartsenpost. 112 is only for life-threatening situations.
Why are the other answers wrong?
- B. You call 112: 112 is only for life-threatening situations. A high fever without danger to life is not one of them.
- C. You wait until school opens again: Waiting is not wise with a sick child. At night and at weekends you can call the out-of-hours GP service.
- D. You go to the pharmacy: The pharmacy cannot examine your child. Call the out-of-hours GP service first.
💡 Tip: Save the number of the out-of-hours GP service (huisartsenpost) in your phone. You can find it on your own GP's website.
