If the victim is in a safe location, do not move the victim unless it is absolutely necessary. Identify the call as a Medical Emergency. FROM, not necessarily your number. Remember, during any emergency and especially during medical emergencies, minutes can feel like hours. Remain calm, and assist the victim in any way you can.
Help is only a short time away.
The health unit nurse and a member of the security force will respond to your location. Emergency response times by NASA-trained medical personnel is nearly immediate, with professional fire department assistance arriving well before the national standard of 8 minutes. Report as many of the contributing factors as possible to the responding medical personnel. This data is then compared to the Headquarters exposure hours, based on actual work hours. The results give us a frequency rate with which we can compare our performance to that of the other Centers and the national average.
