We often hear about the hoax calls being made to the emergency services by the younger generation, but we rarely hear about the genuine calls being made by the younger member of our society which actually do save lives.

In this particular call, 9-year-old Rihanna dialled 999 and asked for the ambulance service after her mum became seriously ill.

Here at Emergency Services News, we have listened to quite a few 999 calls, but few as calm and as clear as the 999 call that was made by Rihanna.

Not only did Rihanna give the Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) staff the exact details which they needed, but she also used the phonetic alphabet to pass some of the important bits of information over to the emergency call handler.

The emergency call that was made by Rhianna highlights just why you should take the time to teach your children about the 999 system and how and when to use it.

This 999 call is a perfect example of not only the questions which will be asked during the call, but also how best to answer them.

Whilst emergency control rooms around the country are plagued by hoax calls, genuine calls such as this one show why so many men and women decide to work in the fast-moving environment of an emergency operations room.

Quick-thinking Rihanna received a certificate from Garrett Emmerson, the Chief Executive of the London Ambulance Service, for her quick thinking and for her keeping level headed in what must have been a very stressful and worrying situation for her.

9-year-old Rihanna probably saved her mothers life with this exceptional 999 call @Ldn_Ambulance | @LAS_HART | @LAS_Brent | @LAS_JRU | @LAS_NorthWest | https://t.co/vbzb0tSGnE

Before you go...

WE NEED YOUR HELP.Here at Emergency Services News, we aim to tell you stories that the mainstream media are not interested in reporting. Whilst the MSM love to berate and ridicule the emergency services, who is there to report on the realities of serving on the front line?

Emergency Services News is currently a loss-making entity. But our team of volunteers, all former emergency services personnel, do not do it for the money.

We do it because we are sick and tired of the mainstream media constantly trying to undermine the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep you and your family safe.

How many MSM journalists who speak ill of the emergency services have actually dared to don the uniform and risk their own lives to save the life of a complete stranger? If you would like to help back our mission of reporting on fact-based news, then please consider helping to support us financially.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
