medical facilities and doctors in caracas

GENERAL INFORMATION

Be Informed!

It is advised that you get to know your family doctor and the location of the recommended health

facilities in Caracas before you need them. This information will be helpful to you in the event of an

emergency. A list of local physicians as well as recommended health facilities is included in this

Handbook. Take the time to familiarize yourself with the services available!

Local Medical Facilities

Caracas has many excellent hospitals, physicians, laboratories, and diagnostic testing capabilities in the

private sector; however, the public sector has been in crisis for some time. Many public facilities lack

basic supplies and equipment so it is not advisable to use the public hospitals for any of your health care

needs. The term hospital is generally reserved for a public government-administered institution, which

provides free or inexpensive care to low-income persons. The term clinica is used for a private facility

which has both inpatient and outpatient services. All of the facilities recommended in this handbook are

private clinics.

Hospitalization in Venezuela

If overseas hospitalization should occur, it is reassuring to know that English-speaking physicians who

have done graduate studies in the U.S., Canada, or Europe offer excellent medical care in Caracas,

frequently. Hospitalization in Venezuela is very different from that obtained in the United States.

Despite the availability of high quality medical care, nursing care is often inadequate and of poor quality.

It is frequently expected that a family member will stay with the patient overnight to provide assistance

as hospitals are poorly staffed at night. In private hospitals, each room has an extra couch/bed for just

this purpose. Hospital staff will provide extra bedding for the family member (the acompaante), and

you will be billed for this service.

Ambulance Services Health

Rescarven and Ayuda 24 are the recommended private ambulance services. Medical personnel are on

board of each ambulance. In order to use their ambulance services, each member of your family must

be registered with Rescarven or Ayuda 24 in advance.

Local Pharmacies and Medications

Pharmacies (Farmacias) are widely available throughout Caracas. Each sector of town has at least one

pharmacy open 24 hours a day for emergencies. This is known as the farmacia de turno and is well

recognized by a brightly lit neon turno sign. This notice is posted on the doors of other neighborhood

pharmacies.

Many medications available in Venezuela have the same name as in the U.S, including Benadryl,

Betadine, Caladryl, Chlortrimeton, Contac, Dramamine, Immodium, Kaopectate, Lomotil, Maalox,

Mylanta, Motrin, Pedialyte, Pepto-Bismol, Tums, and Tagamet.

Many drugs, which are available only by prescription in the U.S. are available over the counter in

Venezuela. Birth control pills can be purchased without a prescription. Antibiotics need a prescription.
