==Description==
An '''emergency''' is a situation which poses an [[immediate]] risk to [[health]], life, property or [[environment]]. Most emergencies require urgent [[intervention]] to prevent a worsening of the situation, although in some situations, mitigation may not be possible and [[agencies]] may only be able to offer palliative care for the aftermath.
