No,call the Emergency Department and tell them that you want to call an ambulance to bring your Mom to the hospital . A triage nurse will ask some questions and then communicate with the ambulance crew so they will know more about your Mom when they arrive to help.

Yes, probably a good idea, but it makes a difference if there is red blood or black being vomited. Red blood needs to go to the ER.
Black fluid only can go to urgent care.
