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

"Emergency services in Uruguay are generally reliable and efficient. In the event of an emergency, the best way to call for an ambulance is to dial 911. This number is free and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The operator will ask for the location of the emergency and dispatch the appropriate emergency services," explained one expat living in Uruguay.
