Narrative:
We were in the aisle with carts. #2 flight attendant went to answer call button. (Woman incoherent and unconscious.) #2 flight attendant said we had a medical emergency and we moved carts up to row 2L and 2R to park, and grabbed medical kit, oxygen. (No aed onboard.) assistance was onboard. Rn's assisted without page. I was not directly involved, other than moving carts and advising #1 flight attendant, and then continuing service while passenger was tended to. Diverted to stl to remove passenger for medical attention. She walked off with paramedics.
