What to Do When You Don’t Feel Well! Three Steps!!
If you feel unwell, see a doctor at a clinic or hospital before your symptoms get worse.

Step 1

Do not worry on your own. Just ask someone near you for advice.

Firstly, ask a Japanese person near you or your employer about clinics and hospitals.

Step 2

If Step 1 is too difficult, find a consultation service to provide information about clinics and hospitals and telephone them.

Step 3

Use your smartphone (Google Maps, etc.) to search for a clinic or hospital near you.

If you pluck up the courage to visit a place you find, they will tell you the best place to go.

What will I need when I go to a clinic or hospital?
I can’t speak Japanese very well, so I am worried about the language barrier when I go to the clinic or hospital.
