A
life-threatening situation calls for immediate and independent

your phone, for example. |

When telephoning to an
emergency service, you need to:
provide the following information:
a) your name and
address, including the floor (étage) and entrance code number if
necessary,
b) your telephone number
c) patient's name and
age
inform them of the nature of the illness or accident
and what has happened since, and what treatment, if any, has been
given. Also describe the patient's present condition (can not walk,
is vomiting, is in pain, etc.)
speak clearly and slowly in French or
English. If you do not speak French
and do not have anyone else who can make the call, the person on the
other end may understand or be able to find someone who does. SOS
Médecins and European Benefits can answer
emergency calls in English. |
