Crisis that requires immediate action (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emergency

(Other definitions for emergency that I've seen before include "A sudden unforeseen crisis" , "Crisis requiring immediate action" , "Sudden dangerous occurrence" , "Patient needing immediate care" , "ward" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
