| Step by Step guide to
dialling 999:
Dial 999 immediately for emergencies such as:
chest pain, difficulty in breathing, loss of consciousness,
severe loss of blood, severe burns and scalds, choking,
fitting/convulsions, drowning, and severe allergic reactions.
1. Before phoning, make sure that you know the location
of the emergency and the telephone number that you are
calling from.
2. The first person to speak to you will be the telephone
operator, who will ask whether you require the ambulance,
fire, or police service.
3. Once you have requested an ambulance, your call
will be connected to the Ambulance Dispatch Centre.
4. You will be asked where you want the ambulance to
go. An ambulance will be sent as soon as the location
is known.
5. You should stay on the line as the call handler
will ask you some questions about the incident, including
details about the condition of the patient or patients.
The information you provide will be relayed to the ambulance
crew.
6. Do not hang up until instructed to do so. The call
handler may provide advice about how you can help the
patient, and you will also be required to confirm the
location and number you are calling from.
