Many of us have come to an ambulance. Often, the doctor has to be called in a non-standard situation, when the decision must be taken lightning, because the price of delay can be human life. Oddly enough, but often the time of arrival of ambulance depends on how correct and complete information was able to provide an applied. Let's figure out how to correctly call an ambulance care.
How to make a call
Modern man does not experience problems with communication. Everyone has a mobile phone from which you can make a call at any time. If you have a city phone nearby, it is preferable to make a call from it. After all, not everywhere and not always a cellular communication works flawlessly. Sometimes possible malfunctions on the network, so the city phone will in this case become more reliable. Ambulance number when calling from a city phone is known to everyone since childhood - 03. In case you still call from the mobile, you can dial a single emergency number 112. No communication operator for the call at this number charges fees. Our site should be remembered that you can call the number 112 even with a negative balance on the account and even in the absence of a SIM card in the phone. In the rescue service you will be listened and will transfer the call to the desired ambulance department. Despite the operational work of emergency services, in this case, invaluable time may be lost. Therefore, it is worth knowing that each operator is reserved its own number by which you can call an ambulance. Beeline subscribers need to dial 003. Subscribers MegaFon, MTS, Tele2, U-Tel - 030. Sky Link and Motive subscribers - 903. If you have another regional telecom operator, the ambulance is better to clarify.
Not rarely by calling an ambulance, you get to the answering machine. Many in this case, instead of staying on the line, discard the challenge and begin to call again. Do this no need. Your call will automatically queue, and the first liberated operator will answer you.
What you need to report during the call
Sometimes we appeal for medical care in stressful or even a panic situation. This happens when you or your close person sharply became bad, and you can not independently determine the cause, which means you don't know how to help. During a conversation by phone, try to keep calm. Otherwise, in a panic you can confuse the address or forget to convey important information. So, when answering the duty operator, you should report, firstly, what happened. If you know the disease or the reason for the patient's bad well-being, name it. If you can not determine, because of what a person sharply became bad, as soon as possible describes the symptoms. For example: «The man abruptly pale, began to breathe hard, fell to the floor, now is in a pre-crumpled state». Description of the type «I do not know, you see, a man is bad», Complete the task to the operator. After all, based on your words, he decides which brigade to send on a challenge: cardiological, traumatological, resuscitation, psychiatric, toxicological, neurological, obstetric and t.D. With the same purpose, the operator will ask you to name the floor of the patient and age. After all, men and women may often differ. Just like people of young and older people. Be sure to tell me that you have already done. If you gave some kind of medicine, inform the name. Better before the arrival of the doctor does not throw out ampoules or empty packs from tablets, because in the past time you can easily forget the name of the medicine. Be sure to show them to the arrived doctor. It is possible if you do not inform the doctor or deliberately swept this information, it may affect the health of the patient. After all, the doctor can give a medicine that is not compatible with that a few minutes ago took the patient, or will give the same again, thereby increase the dose of the drug, which will also entail negative consequences.
Clearly and choose the address. In some cities, many consonant names of streets and alleys. The operator may be heard another similar name, and then the ambulance will arrive at the wrong address, and the priceless time will be lost. It happens that applied by the names of the name: instead of Avenue or Boulevard, there is a street, instead of a dead end or passion for the lane. And in many, especially large cities, can be both Gagarin Street and Gagarin Avenue, both cosmonaut boulevard, and alley of astronauts and T.NS. Very often errors are found in the numbering. It may be confused or not called the case number, structure, or an incorrect literator. Although we seem to be your working or home address by heart, in emergency situations there are all. Therefore, be extremely careful when you inform the address. Do not forget to say the code from the entrance if you call the ambulance brigade to the house. Otherwise, the doctor will be difficult to penetrate the entrance, especially if it is at night. To contact you, the operator will ask your contact phone number. Better to inform urban. Since your mobile in fuss and panic you can leave somewhere in another room and simply do not hear a call if you suddenly make it necessary to contact you.
How to meet ambulance brigade
After you have made a call and you reported that the ambulance car is taken care of how the doctor gets to you to get to you faster. If possible, send someone or go down to open the door in the entrance. First of all, it needs to be done to those who live in houses in which there are no code locks, and the doors open only from the inside. And also, who has an intercom defective. Otherwise, the doctor simply will not be able to call you in the apartment. If you called a team of ambulance to work, try to send someone in advance to meet and accompany doctors. If you have a bandwidth at work, write a pass in advance or discuss this issue with the protection and administration of your organization.
Many cities are acutely worth the car parking problem. Despite the fact that now there are places for the location of special equipment, it happens that the ambulance car does not have the opportunity to drive up close to the desired address. Try to think about this question. Perhaps you are familiar to those parked nearby cars of your neighbors or colleagues at work. In this case, try to ask them to overtake the car and release the place for an emergency. It is especially important if you believe that the victim will have to proceed to the hospital in an ambulance and independently revenge to the car will be difficult. If there is a chance that the patient will have to carry on a stretcher, try to find two men physically suitable for this. It can be members of your family or again neighbors and work colleagues. Not always in ambulance teams there are people who will be able to deliver a patient on a stretcher to the car.
Prepare Documents of the victim: Passport and Insurance Policy. If there is a possibility that the patient will be hospitalized, collect things of essentially: bathrobe, slippers, changeable underwear, personal hygiene objects. Then you just don't have time to do this.
In which cases it is necessary to call an ambulance
For some reason, many of us, to put it mildly, do not always complain doctors and often tolerate malaise and pain until the last, hoping that it will turn out to cope with the problem. Alas, but this position is not always correct. Of course, this does not mean that because of each suddenly arising bad well-being worth calling an ambulance brigade, which is already enough work. In this case we advise you the following. If you know exactly the symptoms of the disease and know for sure how to cope with it, you should not disturb doctors. If such a state you test for the first time and do not know what it could be caused, or feel that you just need a specialist help, do not hesitate and contact «ambulance». It also happens that the operator refuses to call, as a rule, in cases where a person can independently get to the nearest hospital or clinic. Extra emergency medical care does not go to the patient for removing alcohol intoxication. A ambulance workers have gradation of calls. Urgency of departure depends on how much an appeal is. So, to paramount: road traffic accidents, heart disease, accidents and t.NS. If nothing threatens the patient's life, and the call is associated with Poles in the joints, lower back, with temperature, shortness of breath, cough, with exacerbations of chronic diseases without a sharp deterioration and other., then the ambulance team will arrive within two hours.
To cases where medical care is needed, belongs: states that can threaten the life and health of the patient, sudden sharp deterioration in health, strong sharp pains, accidents, injuries and fractures, strong poisoning, complications during pregnancy, childbirth, mental disorders, who threaten the lives and health of other citizens.
We wish myself and our loved ones first in the first place of health. Therefore, it is worth thinking about your own state and well-being. Do not be afraid to call an ambulance care, because it works many centuries to save people's lives. Never wait for a sharp deterioration of health. The doctor better will spend time on a trifle challenge than delay and late appeal for help will entail heavy consequences. When calling, keep calm and do not lose self-control. Remember that doctors will focus on the information you initially provide, so the information must be as accurate as possible. Take care of yourself and your loved ones and be healthy!
