ESL Podcast 453 – Making an Emergency Medical Call

Operator: Emergency operator. State your emergency. Dirk: We need an ambulance right away. Operator: What is your name? Dirk: Dirk. Dirk Omora. Operator: Can you tell me what happened? Dirk: There was a car accident. Operator: Where are you? Dirk: I’m not sure. I was driving in my car when I saw the pileup. I’m somewhere on Blossom Road. Can you trace my location? Operator: Yes, we’ll try to do that. Can you see if anyone is hurt? Dirk: One of the drivers is lying on the ground unconscious and the other one is bleeding. There’s someone trapped in the back of her car, too. We need to rescue her before the car explodes! I’m going to see if I can help. Operator: Sir, I need you to stay on the line. I’m sending an ambulance right now and they’ll have the Jaws1 of Life and other equipment to do the job. The paramedics will be there very soon. Dirk: Okay, but hurry! Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
