What should I do in a medical emergency?

A medical emergency is a situation in which the health of a person is at high risk of deteriorating rapidly without immediate medical attention. 

For example, a medical emergency could include chest pains, increasing difficulty in breathing, impaired consciousness and any of the signs of a stroke (facial weakness, inability to lift a limb or slurred speech).

Our local hospital is the Royal Surrey County Hospital, located just off the Stag Hill campus and opposite Manor Park, provides an accident and emergency (A&E) service.
