EMERGENCY
Hi,
In case of an EMERGENCY
One can never tell when a situation calls one to help in an emergency. When it does call, one has to be brief and lucid. Here are some main points to note:
Remember KISS, keep it so simple.
1. Tell the problem, robbery, heart attack, accident, life threat, assault, fire, suicide, shooting, prowler, thieves, violence, terrorist, whatever the danger is. Help can be better prepared knowing the type and severity of the emergency.
2. Tell where the emergency is, as identifiable as possible, landmarks, well known buildings, favourite spots, the address, which side of the road if one-way street. Help cannot arrive when it does not know where to come to quickly.
3. Tell when it happened, whether it is about to happen, happening, happened a few minutes ago, or hours ago or approximately. Knowing when the problem happened can help to plan the dragnet soonest.
The important factors are what, where and when was or is the problem !
Other useful points to note are:
4. Describe the culprits, how many, clothings, size, height, ethnic colour, hair style, beard, gait, voice, appearance, tattoo, chains, and other distinguishing factors.
5. Describe the vehicle, licence number, car, van, lorry, colour, make, size, and other features.
6. Be calm when reporting. Listen for any question or instructions. You might be advised what to do if the situation is dangerous.
Have a nice day
