On a lighter note...
If you call the emergency department, we cannot get you an ambulance. When you ask how to get an ambulance because you might have been "bit by a spider," my very patient secretary will tell you to call EMS. She will then inform you that EMS means 911.
Which is all well and good until you ask what the number to 911 is. Then she will bite her tongue much to the amusement of the doctors and nurses listening in and try not to laugh right into the phone.
