Emergency

Emergency refers to a sudden and urgent situation that poses a significant risk to health, life, property, or the environment and requires immediate attention or action. Emergencies can arise from various sources, including natural disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, or hurricanes), accidents (such as car crashes or industrial incidents), medical crises (like heart attacks or severe injuries), or other unforeseen events that disrupt normal operations or pose threats to safety. The response to an emergency is often coordinated by emergency services, which include police, fire, and medical personnel, and may involve evacuation, treatment, rescue operations, and mitigation measures to manage the situation effectively and prevent further harm.
