Medical or Emergency contact list

There may be a need to contact someone for a medical reason or other. A list of contacts can be found within the British Embassy Notes within the home page of this website.

Some of the people on the list speak little English, but with a few words of Portuguese, Spanish or Italian you may be understood, but you may not understand them!

Althought there may be someone who does speak English at the Police Station or Hospital, they may not be there.

Its is advised to make sure you have proper and adequate travel insurance for Cape Verde.
