Patient requiring urgent treatment (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emergency

(Other definitions for emergency that I've seen before include "It's not expected" , "Unexpected serious situation" , "Urgent need" , "Serious situation needing prompt action" , "Sudden occurrence necessitating urgent action" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
