NiŚOZ (nocna i świąteczna opieka zdrowotna — night and holiday healthcare) provides medical and nursing care outside normal clinic opening hours: Monday to Friday from 18:00–8:00 and round the clock on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. There are currently 18 points in Lubuskie Voivodeship, with the largest numbers in Żary, Żagań, Lubsko and Skwierzyna. Below you will find the full list with addresses and phone numbers, access rules and information on what to do if the duty doctor recommends laboratory tests.

When to use night and holiday healthcare

NiŚOZ is intended for people who develop a sudden illness or whose health deteriorates in a way that is not life-threatening but cannot wait until their clinic opens: fever, infection, a sore throat, earache or abdominal pain without warning signs, vomiting and diarrhoea, a flare-up of a chronic condition, or the need for an injection prescribed by a doctor or a dressing change. There are no catchment-area restrictions and no referral is needed: you can attend any point in Poland, regardless of where you live or which clinic you are registered with. The duty doctor provides consultations on site, by telephone and, where medically justified, at the patient’s home. You need an identity document for the consultation; your insurance is checked through the eWUŚ system.

If there is an immediate threat to life (loss of consciousness, seizures, severe chest pain, sudden breathlessness, extensive burns, vomiting blood or signs of a stroke), call 112 or 999, not a NiŚOZ point. The free NFZ (Narodowy Fundusz Zdrowia — Polish National Health Fund) patient information helpline, 800 190 590, operates round the clock and can help you find the nearest point, but does not provide medical advice. Emergency dental care has separate duty rotas; these are listed on the NFZ website.

Has the duty doctor recommended tests? Have them done in the morning without a referral

Night and holiday healthcare points do not carry out routine laboratory testing: the duty doctor assesses the patient’s condition and recommends further steps, while blood tests (full blood count with differential, CRP, glucose, electrolytes, liver function tests) and urinalysis usually need to be done the next day. You do not need to wait for an appointment at your clinic or have a referral: you can buy tests online at BadamySie.pl and have them done in the morning at your nearest ALAB, Synevo or ETER-MED collection point, then access the results online the same day or the next day and show them to your GP. The result report is issued in Polish.
