Its best-known department is the Clinic of Burn Medicine, one of only three specialised burn centres in the Czech Republic. Other strong areas are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>cardiology and cardiac surgery<\/li>\n<li>a stroke centre for acute treatment of diseases of the brain&#8217;s blood vessels<\/li>\n<li>a comprehensive cancer centre with radiotherapy<\/li>\n<li>plastic surgery and neurosurgery<\/li>\n<li>gynaecology and obstetrics, with its own maternity unit<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Emergency care<\/h2>\n<p>The emergency department (<em>Urgentn\u00ed p\u0159\u00edjem<\/em>) is on the ground floor of pavilion S and is open around the clock. Bring an ID and your insurance card; you register at the emergency department&#8217;s own front desk.<\/p>\n<p>For problems that are urgent but not life-threatening, the out-of-hours doctor service (<em>l\u00e9ka\u0159sk\u00e1 pohotovostn\u00ed slu\u017eba<\/em>, LPS) works from a room inside the same department. A dedicated doctor is there on weekdays 18:30\u201323:00 and on weekends and public holidays 8:00\u201320:00. Outside those hours the emergency doctors cover it, and because they treat life-threatening cases first, you may wait longer.

According to the hospital&#8217;s patient information, an interpreter can be arranged on request, at the patient&#8217;s expense. Many patients bring a Czech-speaking friend instead.<\/p>\n<h2>Insurance and payment<\/h2>\n<p>As a state hospital, FNKV treats patients with Czech public health insurance in the usual way. If you have a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), bring it together with your passport or ID: it entitles you to medically necessary care on the same terms as a Czech-insured patient. If you are uninsured, or your insurer has no agreement with the hospital, you are treated as a self-payer and the foreigners&#8217; reception will tell you what has to be paid and when.<\/p>\n<p>For a planned visit to a specialist you need a referral (<em>\u017e\u00e1danka<\/em>) from a GP or another specialist. Appointments are made by phone through the switchboard, or online for some clinics.<\/p>\n<h2>Maternity unit<\/h2>\n<p>The maternity unit is part of the Clinic of Gynaecology and Obstetrics. By number of births it is the smallest of Prague&#8217;s six maternity hospitals (939 births in 2025) and it has the status of an intermediate perinatal care centre.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Registration:<\/strong> not compulsory. You can register voluntarily online between weeks 12 and 34 of pregnancy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check-in visit:<\/strong> required, in week 36\u201337.

Ask at the information centre by the main entrance which one you need.<\/li>\n<li>To find a relative who has been admitted, the information centre will ask for the patient&#8217;s Czech birth number.<\/li>\n<li>Visits are possible every day. Each ward sets its own hours, and visits outside them need the agreement of the doctor or nurse.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<h3>Is the emergency room at FNKV open at night?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. The emergency department in pavilion S is open 24 hours a day, every day of the year.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I give birth at FNKV without registering in advance?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Registration is voluntary. What the hospital does require is a check-in visit in week 36\u201337 of pregnancy.<\/p>\n<h3>Where do I go if I have no Czech insurance?<\/h3>\n<p>During working hours, start at the foreigners&#8217; reception by the main entrance. At night or at the weekend, go straight to the emergency department if your problem is urgent.<\/p>\n<h3>Does FNKV treat dental emergencies?<\/h3>\n<p>No. The hospital does not run a dental emergency service for the public.<\/p>\n<p><em>Last checked in November 2026 against the hospital&#8217;s official website.
