	Emergency action principles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In first aid, emergency action principles seek to describe what to do when encountering an emergency situation.
		Calling 911 for emergency help must take priority over actions such as rescue breathing or CPR, since they are intended to gain time for emergency services to arrive as part of the chain of survival.
		The next step is to activate emergency medical services by calling for help using a local emergency telephone number, such as 911 in Canada or the United States, 999 in the UK, 112 in most of continential Europe, 000 in Australia and 111 in New Zealand.

	Global Action to Prevent War and Armed Conflict
		Yet an emergency service could provide immediate, full protection in some crises and serve as an advance peace service that would prepare the way for subsequent additional help, if needed, in larger conflicts--a vital function that is not provided by any existing agency.
		Because a UN emergency service would be permanent, based at UN designated sites, and include mobile field headquarters, it could move to quell an emergency within 48 hours after United Nations authorization.
		Because it would be an integrated service encompassing civilian, police, judicial, and military personnel prepared to conduct multiple functions in diverse UN operations, it would not suffer for lack of components essential to peace operations or from confusion about the chain of command.
