How to Place an Emergency Phone Call

  1. If the victim is not breathing, help first and phone later (or get someone else to phone).
  2. When an injured person is in distress but is breathing, phone for help at once!
  3. What to say:
    1. Tell where you are. If possible, give the address and any special description of how to get to the victim.
    2. Give your name and the phone number from which you are calling.
    3. Tell what happened and describe the victim’s condition as best you can.
    4. Don’t hang up! Let the emergency person end the conversation. He or she may have questions or information to give you.
