The Medical Service has an infirmary where we dispense primary care to anyone who comes to us with physical or mental health problems.

To ensure both quality and safety of care, all care administered at the infirmary includes an assessment of the patient’s health according to a defined protocol. We also offer health-related advice and guidance in personal and professional matters, in particular by referring you to qualified healthcare professionals.

The infirmary is available to everyone working at or visiting CERN.
