Answer:

Alert the hospital

Explanation:

EMS stands for Emergency Medical Services, which represents a team of doctors and nurses responsible for assisting people in emergency situations outside the hospital. The above question shows that the EMS were taking care of a person who had a stroke. This person will need treatment in a hospital and should be seen promptly, so the EMS should alert the hospital that it will take a stroke patient to the hospital to prepare and reduce treatment time.
