It often helps to talk to an adult, but sometimes people need more help. In such cases, the school health service will be able to refer you to a GP, dentist, physiotherapist or psychologist.
The school health service is provided on a drop-in basis at all schools in our municipalites. Availabilty varies. Have a look at bulletins posted at your school or your school website for detalis about when the school health service is available. If you cannot find this information, you are welcome to contact the staff at your school or your municipal Health Centre for details.
