2. Other Useful Numbers

3. While Waiting for Help

  • Stay on the line with the dispatcher — they can guide you.
  • Unlock the front door / gate so responders can enter.
  • If the person is conscious, keep them calm and still.
  • If the person is unconscious but breathing, place them on their side (recovery position).
  • If you know CPR and the person isn't breathing, begin chest compressions.
  • Have a list of current medicines ready to share with responders.
  • Don't give food or water unless told to.
