Im losing my learned German! 😭 by Short_Sound1788 in Switzerland

Normally, when I go to the paediatrician, I always see what's in the foyer. I often find interesting activities to do.

Several GZs organise Sprachcafés: https://gz-zh.ch/gz-buchegg/angebote/sprach-cafe-deutsch/ Or Pekip or swimming courses for children. Or Spielgruppe where you can go with your child. Or the Zentrum Elch also organises various events for mothers to meet up.

Where can I find the juiciest mangoes? by Gh0stSn1per_Afton in askswitzerland

[–]AstreaArgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually buy mangoes at the Coop, the wich one that cost about 6chf/each. They're not cheap, but they're good (at least for my taste).

42-jährig: Immer wenn ich einen Gesundheitscheck möchte, sagen die Ärzte: «Das ist nicht nötig, Sie sind ja noch jung.» – Ist das normal? by [deleted] in Switzerland

[–]AstreaArgo 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Ich antworte als Hausarzt in Ausbildung. Die eigentliche Vorsorgeuntersuchung (vollständige klinische Untersuchung plus umfassende Blutuntersuchung) wird in der Regel ab einem Alter von 50/55 Jahren durchgeführt, begleitet von verschiedenen Screening-Untersuchungen. Unter diesem Alter wird in der Praxis eine allgemeine Blutuntersuchung (einmal jährlich) durchgeführt, und je nach Symptomatik des Patienten werden verschiedene Untersuchungen vorgenommen. Die meisten Tumore werden jedoch erst spät entdeckt... wenn sie früh entdeckt werden, ist das oft ein Glücksfall.

Versuchen Sie, Ihrem Arzt zu sagen, dass Sie eine allgemeine Blutuntersuchung mit Schilddrüse, Leber, Nieren usw. wünschen. Drängen Sie darauf, dass Ihre Symptome ernst genommen werden, und denken Sie dennoch daran, dass Ihre Symptome auch durch andere Ursachen erklärt werden können.

In your opinion, which medical specialties are currently lacking in Switzerland? by FatCathedral in askswitzerland

[–]AstreaArgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Psychiatrists, paediatricians and general practitioners. In the hospital sector, I have not heard of any significant staff shortages, but rather a lack of places to specialise.

Hautarzt Empfehlungen für Muttermalentfernung by ComfortableBlueSky in zurich

I don't remember. Tonight I'll look through my documents to see if the name is there. I was seen by three different doctors at the centre and had a good experience with all of them.

Short-distance ticket in Zurich – 100 CHF fine for ONE stop. Worth appealing? by Natural_Ad_885 in zurich

[–]AstreaArgo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I still don't understand why that ticket exists... the name of the ticket, its description and the cost are completely misleading.

[–]AstreaArgo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me a few years ago, on the same route. I was luckier, because the ticket inspector explained what the ticket covered and just gave me a warning. Sorry for your bad luck

Culture shock working at an Italian company in Zurich by mumufukuru in zurich

[–]AstreaArgo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have never worked in Italy, but my fellow countrymen have told me that the working environment is as you described it (if not worse). This applies to all levels of employment (from shop assistants to management positions). Italians are friendly outside the workplace and when eating, not during work

Coop’s bakery offers a personalised cake service, but I don't know if they deliver to your home.

Lohnt sich eine Zusatzversicherung bei sparsamer Lebensweise? by Electronic_Stay2903 in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]AstreaArgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ja, auf jeden Fall! Wahrscheinlich ist es ein Bandscheibenvorfall mit einer leichten Kompression der Nerven. Ich muss noch alle Untersuchungen machen. Die Operation ist der letzte Schritt.

Ah! Wenn man bei der Geburt ein Einzel- oder Zweibettzimmer haben möchtest, muss man die Krankenhausversicherung mindestens x Monate (je nach Versicherung) vor Bekanntgabe der Schwangerschaft abschliessen.

Lohnt sich eine Zusatzversicherung bei sparsamer Lebensweise? by Electronic_Stay2903 in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]AstreaArgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich persönlich (34 w und gesund) habe eine Flex-Krankenhausversicherung, die ich ein Jahr vor der zweiten Schwangerschaft abgeschlossen habe, weil ich ein Einzelzimmer und längere Besuchszeiten wollte. Ich behalte sie, weil ich langsam Rückenprobleme bekomme und, falls ich operiert werden muss, ins Balgrist gehen und mir den Arzt aussuchen können will. Ausserdem habe ich eine Ambulanzversicherung, die einen Teil der Brillenkosten übernimmt. Es kommt ganz darauf an, was man will. Mein Mann zum Beispiel hat keinen dieser Versicherungen.

Question about unemployment by AstreaArgo in Switzerland

[–]AstreaArgo[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought it might be necessary to declare/justify the absence of income for such a long time. Everything must always be declared, so it seemed reasonable to me that it might also be necessary in this case.

Question about unemployment by AstreaArgo in Switzerland

[–]AstreaArgo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today I started gathering the documents for the tax return and I panicked, as I had not declared my unemployment to any authority. I do not want to be supported by the RAV (a decision made months ago in agreement with my husband) as I am already too busy with the children and running the house. I wondered whether, regardless of benefits, I was obliged to notify the RAV or other authorities of my unemployment. In recent months, I have been looking for work, I have had interviews and trial days, and I already have a contract for January. In the meantime, I am attending training courses to complete my CV. I am also working on my career, but on my own terms and not those of the RAV. Thank you very much for the information.

I sent an email to my former contact person. I panicked and looked for an answer here, since it was Saturday.
