A life-threatening situation calls for immediate and independent action on your part. This information might be helpful and should be kept visible and accessible.
When calling an emergency service, you need to provide the following information:
Speak clearly and slowly in French or English. If you don鈥檛 speak French and do not have anyone else who can make the call, the person on the other end may understand English or may be able to find someone who does. SOS M茅decins and European Benefits can answer emergency calls in English.
