"Emergency services in Vietnam are generally reliable and efficient. In the event of an emergency, the best way to call for an ambulance is to dial the national emergency number, 115. This number is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is free of charge. The operator will then dispatch an ambulance to the location of the emergency," explained one expat living in Vietnam.
