In case of emergency

What do you do when an emergency occurs?

1. Call first:

If you are in doubt, CALL!

  • 110 - Fire brigade    
  • 112 - Police
  • 113 - Ambulance

When notifying, tell them:

  • Who you are
  • What has happened
  • Where the incident happened/address
  • How many or what is hurt
  • Other circumstances to consider such as fire, leakage etc.

2. Do this if there is a serious unwanted event:

Look for signs of life:

  • Can you wake the person?
  • Does the person have free airways?
  • Is the person breathing normally?

Call 1-1-3

Put it on speaker phone

If the person is unconscious and not breathing normally start CPR.

30:2

Send someone to meet the ambulance.

Find your closest defibrilator.

Notify:

Notify the fire department by calling 1-1-0.

Rescue:

Evacuate the building.

Extinguish:

Try extinguishing the fire with a fire hose or other hand held extinguishing equipment.

Call the police 1-1-2 (if you are able to do so)

RUN

if you can.

Get to a safe place, NOT any fire assembly points.

HIDE

If you can't run.

Lock the door, turn off the lights, and put your phone on silent.

FIGHT

If you have no other choice.

Attack fast and targeted toward weapons, eyes, neck - get the person down.

You should always ask for help once too many than once to few.
