Head injuries are among the most dangerous emergencies. They can result from road accidents, falls, or sports injuries. What many people don’t realize is that even a minor-looking head injury can turn critical within minutes. This is why emergency care during the Golden Hour—the first 60 minutes—is crucial.

But what should you do immediately? And when should you go to an emergency hospital near you?

First Aid for Head Injury: What to Do Immediately

Before you reach the hospital, these steps can make a difference:

• Stay Calm & Keep the Person Still – Avoid moving the neck or spine
• Control Bleeding – Apply gentle pressure with a clean cloth.
• Check Consciousness – Is the person alert or losing consciousness?
• Do Not Give Food or Drink – It can lead to choking if surgery is needed.
• Call an Ambulance Immediately – A quick transfer to the nearest emergency hospital with ICU care can save lives.

When to Rush to an Emergency Hospital

Don’t wait for symptoms to worsen. Go to the nearest NABH-accredited emergency hospital if you notice:

1. Loss of consciousness
2. Severe headache or confusion
3. Persistent vomiting
4. Clear fluid or blood from ears/nose
5. Unequal pupils or vision issues

In such cases, time is everything. The faster you reach an ICU hospital with trauma care, the better the outcome.
