Emergency: what it is and how to respond
There are numerous emergencies every day. That's reason enough to take a closer look at the word ‘emergency’. We also answer the question of what to do in an emergency.
What is an emergency?
An emergency is a situation in which help is urgently needed.
It is therefore extremely important to react quickly in any emergency situation in order to prevent damage or worse.
Types of emergencies
An emergency is also any situation or emergency in which there is an imminent threat to property, animals or the physical integrity of people.
Such hazards are often associated with a medical emergency, but emergencies also occur in other areas of a company. These days, IT emergencies can cause enormous damage if they are not dealt with quickly.
What to do in an emergency?
In the event of an emergency, the most important thing is to remain calm and take care of your own safety. The next steps vary depending on the type of emergency.
The following steps should be taken in the medical field:
- Check whether the affected person is conscious. If so, talk to the person and possibly cover them with a blanket. Then dial the emergency number.
- If the person is unconscious and breathing, place them in the recovery position and dial the emergency number. If the person is no longer breathing, call the emergency number immediately and start resuscitation.
You should have the following information ready for the emergency services in the event of a medical emergency:
- Where did it happen?
- What has happened?
- How many casualties are there?
- Who is calling?
No matter in which area an emergency occurs, the most important thing is always to act quickly.
