How is Crisis different than an Emergency?
A crisis is different from an emergency, which is life-threatening and demands an immediate 911 response. The essential initial response in an emergency is preserving life:
- Securing physical safety
- Dealing with medical issues
- Removing the person from the source of danger and defusing physical violence
If you are in an emergency, call 911.
