What to do in case of an Emergency

  1. First dial 112 to reach health and police resources, firefighting resources, rescue and civil protection. The operator will answer the phone in Italian. Respond in English and you will be transferred to an English-speaking operator in a few moments. Be prepared to say your name and share your exact location and type of emergency
