Rescue Under a Tram - Ambulance UK - Medical Documentary

[@dreamcatcher3861]

Gordon and Shirley broke my heart, the way he was holding her foot on the ambulance and the female paramedic near to tears, I really felt for them. Poor man, I just wanted to hug him.

[@isabelfaye3052]

Aww❤😢. Seeing elderly people, almost crying here. How he loves his wife. :(

[@donnamurphy5698]

If we could all be so blessed.

[@ahummerich2751]

Never a greater honor than to serve your fellow man.

[@drdeborahhockney5609]

Poor husband of the lady in cardiac arrest . It’s the Seniors that tug at my heart after spending many years together ❤

[@NotfallsRene]

Fascinating. One doctor for 2.8 million people? As a German EMS doctor I just can't imagine this scenario. In Berlin, for 3.4 million people we have 27 doctors on the road, 2 in the air and if needed 5 more for inter-hospital intensive care transport.

[@jamilmiri7868]

Natürlich ist 1 zu wenig, jedoch muss man sagen, dass das Angloamerikanische System nicht auf NEFs basiert. Wenn man sieht wofür bei uns einer raus geht, kann man ab und zu nur lachen.

[@beansmeanz]

true, but we also have advanced paramedics and other kinda stuff. we seriously need more MERIT Doctors though

[@alpen_rider_1259]

Das liegt daran dass die viel fortschrittlicher als wir sind und Paramedics haben

[@NotfallsRene]

@@alpen_rider_1259 Mit Fortschritt hat das wenig zu tun, es ist halt ein anderes System.

[@i10gal]

Great insight into the paramedics and what a fantastic job they do as do the call handlers too. Yes this one made me cry too when Gordon was in the ambulance with his wife 😢 Would have liked to know what happened to Paul who was on the bathroom floor. He did not look well at all.

[@ColinThomson-h5y]

I live in Wigan and it's amazing that there is not enough space at the hospital and not enough ambulances on duty for the people who need them.

[@richardr2716]

It’s not just a Wigan issue it’s a uk wide issue blame the government

[@Cornwalls.best.doorway]

I’m in the U.K. and sad to say I feel the NHS slipping from our grasp 😢

[@GreenscapeUK]

7:24 it’s like listening to the phone call to the ambulance about my uncle all over again.

[@WalkingOnRainbows12]

Something about the medic with the beard sounded off. I thought he was rather sharp and condescending towards his colleague

[@nicolavalentine5405]

Yes same he was rather belittling towards his colleague

[@WalkingOnRainbows12]

I'm glad I'm not the only one!!

[@Rosiecrossley1]

I noticed it too I get a feeling those two don’t get on well at all off cameras too

[@vanessaoliver8240]

The medic with a beard is a bully .he can't have a normal conversation with his colleague

[@azilelaufer9831]

Like to be center of attention a Little too

[@MazzieMay]

The Morse Coder Translator had such a distinct way of wording things. Hula girls? Island maidens. Why’d he stop hiring a nurse? ‘Perhaps maybe the cost’. Does he need hearing aids? He has, but he’s better now (no he was not 😂)

[@Mori-chandesu]

please put that next one up

[@emilykilpatrick3751]

That guy with the beard is rude I’d hate to work with him.. and he’s a magistrate!

[@michelefritchie6198]

What happened with the other patients? Especially that guy caught under the tram?

[@antoinette8713]

I wouldn’t have a job if i was assigned to always work with guy with bread. hes cocky rude very inconsiderate of other employees & their feelings!!

[@azilelaufer9831]

I really want to know the cost of that whole tram operation 🤔😶

[@vanessaoliver8240]

Problem is population increase worldwide

[@DeKat-84]

Population increasing much faster than the amount of available resources.

[@SAM-jc6ib]

And countless failed governments not taking this into consideration

[@vanessaoliver8240]

Has the NHS ever changed policy since it began ?

[@yelmak]

No amount of policy change is going to fix the damage done by decades of underfunding

[@mazda2038]

Could of just said a cooked breakfast

[@thebreezelife]

You don't need breaths anymore just compressions

[@emilykilpatrick3751]

Breaths for children first

[@vanessaoliver8240]

The NHS needs to plan less time for patients on the wards before it colapses completely.keep things moving along.

[@DeKat-84]

Less time for patients on the wards? If patients are sent home too early, before it's clinically safe, a lot of them will end up needing another ambulance and clogging the system up even more. More resources would be a better answer, but that would mean more money.

[@carolinireland1684]

Yes, but so often they cannot be released because of lack of nursing homes, homelessness or being unable to live independently. That’s a huge problem in Ireland as well.

[@WalkingOnRainbows12]

A lot of the time the wards are trying to get patients out when clinically ready and for those that have their own home, families and carers in place or well enough to carry on like nothing happened, the system works perfectly. Where the system fails is for 99% of the time the elderly. If they cam in from home but have to either be discharged with care or into a care home or nursing home, this is where there is the struggle as there arnt the services available, especially nhs services. There are plenty of private but there "rent" for a bedroom can be upwards of £500 A WEEK!!!!!

[@RICDirector]

6000 USD a month for nursing rehab home care for an elderly alert woman who lost her legs....CA, usa

[@vanessaoliver8240]

South African hospitals don't have patients on the wards so ridiculously long.why carry on doing something that doesn't work ?
