THQ Hospital Yazman provides emergency and trauma services immediately and 24/7 in case of medical or accidental emergency with the best healthcare professionals available to serve you. It is always helpful to keep a first aid kit at home. A medical emergency is an acute injury or illness that poses an immediate risk to a person's life or long-term health. These emergencies may require assistance from another person, who should ideally be qualified to do so, although some of these emergencies such as cardiovascular (heart), respiratory, and gastrointestinal cannot be dealt with by the victim/other person themselves. Dependent on the severity of the emergency and the quality of any treatment given, it may require the involvement of multiple levels of care, from first aiders to emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and emergency physicians.
