You could probably phone a hotline or something, but if it's a dangerous situation you should probably dial an emergency number like 999 or 911 in the UK a non emergency issue can be communicated by using the 111 phone call where a health professional will advise you. If they feel that the situation is urgent they will escalate the call level to emergency for you. 999 would be for for life of death issues

What happens if you dial 911 from the united kingdom?

It depends what kind of phone you call it from. If you use a landline phone, you'll probably here silence and then a "number not recognized" message, as 911 isn't a special number combination in the uk. The uk emergency number is 999. If you use a mobile/cellphone, then your phone will probably recognize it as an "emergency number", as most phones have a list of common emergency numbers stored internally. In that case, your phone will initiate an emergency call.
