Good advice.
I would only add Don't hang up until the dispatcher tells you to. They might not have understood you, or they may want to give you instructions or have other questions.

Most dispatchers now have "EMD", which stands for Emergency Medical Dispatch......if you are willing to help, they can walk anyone through any medical emergency and tell you what to do.
