Defining an emergency
• Most emergencies require
urgent intervention to prevent a
worsening of the situation.
Emergency service
• Most developed countries have
a number of emergency
services operating within them,
whose purpose is to provide
assistance in dealing with any
emergency which may occur.
Emergency service
• They are often government
operated, paid for from tax
revenue as a public service, but
in some cases, they may be
private companies, responding
to emergencies in return for
payment, or they may be
voluntary organizations,
providing the assistance from
funds raised from donations.
Emergency service
• Most developed countries
operate three core emergency
services which are:
– Police
– Fire service
– Emergency medical service
Police
• who deal with security of person
and property, which can cover
all three categories of
emergency. They may also deal
with punishment of those who
cause an emergency through
their actions.
Fire service
• who deal with potentially harmful
fires, but also often rescue
operations such as dealing with
road traffic collisions. Their
actions help to prevent loss of
life, damage to health and
damage to or loss of property.
Emergency medical service
• These services attempt to
reduce loss of life or damage to
health. An Emergency medical
service is a service providing
out-of-hospital acute care and
transport to definitive care.

the emergency services use in
