European Union 112 Universal Emergency Number

There are a staggering 100 million recorded medical emergencies in Europe every year, ranging from heart attacks to terrorist attacks, but also including road accidents, fires and earthquakes. How are these crisis situations managed? And how do the call centres and medical services operate in different European countries? The Europen Union has now established 112 as the universal number to call for emergencies throughout the union.
