Please call an ambulance for your girlfriend immediately to take her to her nearest Emergency Department. She may have sustained a significant life-threatening head injury. Explain to the operator that she has sustained a head injury with loss of consciousness for 2 hours, significant headache, amnesia of events and slurring of speech.
