Medical Emergency Point (First Aid Post)
Beyond the local doctor's office, a dedicated medical emergency point or first aid post operates during peak winter and summer seasons, especially near the main ski lift areas and popular hiking trailheads. This facility is staffed by trained medical personnel for immediate treatment of injuries and accidents occurring during sports or outdoor activities, providing rapid response and initial care before transfer to a hospital if necessary. Operating hours are typically aligned with lift operating times or major event schedules, ensuring safety for visitors. Services may incur a fee depending on the nature of the emergency and insurance coverage.
