I hope they never stop making these series, it's so interesting watching them do their job, really loving it. Can't state enough what absolute heroes they are.
It isn't but only if basically everybody get CPR training. In most cases, the time between the incident and the arrival of the EMS is very long. Most people don't realize that they are not doing the training for a stranger on the street but much more likely for a loved one or friend.
@@MHG790 Very important massage! CPR proficiency of a population can directly be linked to survival rate of out-of-hospital arrests. (Obviously the emergency medical system plays a huge role as well, but the best doctors and EMT/paramedics in the world can't safe a person who arrested 15 minutes ago and had no CPR at all.)
@@MHG790 I’m always concerned about whether I would be doing the chest compression properly (in terms of not hard enough or too hard or too fast or not fast enough). I guess it’s something that everyday ppl would always question unless they actually had to do it and succeeded.
I have been an EMT for 15 years. The people I have seen survive have all had CPR within 5 minutes of them going down. Everyone should know CPR because starting it so soon is critical to survival. It buys time for the ambulance to get there and defibrilate or give medications
Dr Pam, you’re my hero. You make ME feel better when you’re dealing with patients. You all have the best bedside manners I’ve ever seen. Keep up the good work. I wished we had an elite air ambulance here in the USA like you have. I’m obsessed with this show.
I used to work on our birds, still amazed at what they can do. Seeing Pam's big beautiful BK doing it's job makes me proud of having done mine. Cheers.
I know exactly how much pain that man had from his broken hip. Myself had broken my hip in 3 places from a car accident. These air medics does an awesome jobs of saving lives.
I really feel for the man who overdosed by accident. I had an overdose or bad effect of a prescribed medication on the first day I took it (as directed). I projectile vomited and just passed right out. Family could not wake me and the only thing I remember was the paramedic rattling on my sternum to try to get me to wake up. It hurt so badly! I had bruises after. the next memory I had was being in restraints at the hospital (and I'm the meekest person, so I couldn't believe I was lashing out at those trying to help me!). I was so embarrassed and scared by the whole thing.
I worked in health care for several years mostly with emergency patients. We don't take it personally because we know that patients are often quite disoriented, in pain, or badly affected by drugs both legitimately prescribed and illegal. I knew one nurse who seemed not to be able to maintain perspective. She left less than a year after starting.
I've said some dreadful things under anesthesia! They know it's the drugs and do not take it personally. I've been given Versed (midazolam) during conscious sedation for a few procedures. Unfortunately for me and my brother it doesn't seem to work that well. If I open my eyes during the procedure, I start recording and then remember everything that happens as long as I'm awake. It's the same for my brother so I suspect it's probably similar for others. Strange.
I ended up in a coma in 2019 after double lung failure from swine flu. Apparently I went unresponsive and my cousin found me. The paramedics weren't sure what was wrong with me at first and tried narcan. They tried the sternum rub too and nothing. When I started coming round in the hospital apparently I began to lash out at the doctors and nurses in my confusion and pulled out my IV. I woke up 8 days later with my hands in restraints. I immediately started trying to get out of them until someone told me what was going on. Everyone was afraid I would wake up from the coma and be combative again and pull out the ventilator. Thankfully I was able to calm down once I realized what was going on. Still didn't make me happy until they removed the restraints do to things that happened in my past. Never would have thought I would have lashed out especially with how weak I was when they brought me in but when you're confused and don't know where you are or what's going on we have a natural instinct to fight back.
That lad who came off his motorbike must've been in terrible pain, bless him. Us Geordies are a tough bunch and are very stoic. We usually just get on with it. I'm so glad he made a full recovery. These Air Ambulance people are amazing.
Those air ambulances are amazing. Expert crew, highly trained, and all the right equipment delivered to the patient ASAP, making an enormous difference in outcomes. Every minute saved getting the patient care directly increases survival rates. It's amazing what folks can accomplish.
I need more episodes of this! This is such a great insight into a world most of us don’t get to see, and I’m a nurse! These air paramedics, Drs and pilots do such an amazing job. My favourite program on TH-cam. Merry Christmas everyone. 😀
I say this after every episode but these wonderful people make me want to move to the UK so bad! I wish I had loads of money that I could donate to all of these crews!
OMG Cat brought back memories of flatting a few years ago with someone who experiences anaphylaxis to multiple things. Grateful for the training I had when younger, which allowed me to be able to handle reactions, and administer meds, including drawing up adrenaline from a vial, for her to self administer, while waiting for the ambulance.
This series is extremely interesting to me. My brother is/was a helicopter pilot who flew Medevac for the Army for over 20 years (Hueys), retired from the Army and went to work for a private "air ambulance" company (we call them "life flight" or "air rescue"). He spent another 15+ years flying for them. He flew in a mountainous region in the western US. He was also a trained paramedic. The service he worked for used a paramedic, a trauma nurse/nurse practitioner/physician's assistant (just can't recall their training!) who communicated directly with a doctor at the hospital the helicopter was attached to. It's really interesting to see the ways in which the two groups (American v. British) are different yet similar - not that I have any qualification at all to make any judgments! Also interesting to me are the differences between the helicopters. The lead medical person with the doctor's direction would administer various medications where the doctors in Britain take that role. As with the British crews, the hardest calls for him as a parent were for children. Some were quite brutal. He relied heavily on his faith. Great series. Although we have differences that keep us apart now, I'm very proud of my brother and his accomplishments. He was an outstanding pilot. During transfer of the aircraft from hangar to hospital and back, the company's policy allowed family and friends to ride along. I had several opportunities to sit next to him as he piloted the helicopter across the city. Obviously, I did not accompany him on emergency calls. 🤣 He retired a few years ago.
i watch this show as I am the on call ambulance driver, not medically trained, for a small clinic in NW Queensland which has a single nurse clinic. It is the nurse and me who respond to an area of 29ooo sq km. Little things I pick up from these programs I would like to think will assist me and hopefully the nurse in a medical emergency. I love these shows
Does it ever occur to your "superior" intellect that those who choose to "dislike" are simply asking that no more of this type of video shows up in their recommendations? It's very hard for many people to watch, so you have absolutely no business at all making a judgment as to why anyone chooses a simple "dislike."
@@jb6712 You do realese that disliking doesnt change your recommendations, but pressing on the 3 dots on a video and clicking on 'Not interested' does?
I can tell you from personal experience, constant severe pain can make you crazy. You forget what you've taken, you lose track of how much time should come between doses, and you decide that you must need MORE of the medication than anyone else does. I have a chronic cellulitis condition that hits in my left leg if I'm not careful, and it feels like my leg has been both set on fire, and been smashed by sledge hammers. The doctors wisely don't give me opioids, instead they give me a staggered schedule of when to take a combination of non addictive pain killers. It's not nearly enough, but I would become addicted to the stronger stuff in no time. And coconut is in EVERYTHING!! As milk, cream or shreds, the food industry uses it for a bewildering variety of things. It may not even be listed in the ingredients. So if you are allergic, any kind of packaged or prepared food is a trap.
I suffer from chronic pain too. It sucks! I did get addicted to the pain medication my dr prescribed me. I would need more and stronger pills. My dr happily gave it to me. I knew I had a problem when I’d take them when I was just in a bad mood or anxious, etc. Now no amount of opiates will ever work for me. I messed that up for myself.
Karen Higgins I was in the same boat. My addiction spiraled out of control very quickly. When I tried talking to my drs about it they’d tell me that physical dependence is not the same as addiction! Yeah sure lol. Thankfully I have a lot of support and an amazing family and have been clean from all opioids for just over a year but dealing with severe chronic pain everyday sucks.
@@mandaleemilly6367 Don't know what kind of pain you have, but I don't even take Tylenol unless I've done something stupid to ratchet up the pain level. I take a pineapple (bromelain)-rutin-trypsin enzyme compound that absolutely saved me from taking my own life due to pain so severe I could barely sleep or walk more than five feet. It's non-prescription and costs me $100 a year. Please look up non-prescription/natural pain remedies. Even if it only helps 5%, that's 5% less, right? :D Best of luck.
@gypsijewel a lot of foods are good for you , but people are still allergic to them, I was allergic to coconut for 15yrs, after staying away from it for that long, i can now tolerate a small amount
Why are these programs SO addictive. I love watching this alongside "Trauma doctors", "An hour to save your life" , "Lifesavers" and "Ambuchannel112". Could be that this is real, and the heroes are real, not Hollywood actors.
Oh my , as a nurse , I am astounded that any medical person would send home a patient with that amount and combination of narcotic and sedatives. Valium, opiates and gabapentin all at the same time for sciatica, absolutely ridiculous and very dangerous!
@Tony Roberts I've never been given anything stronger than cyclobenzaprine for muscle pain, and 5 percocet to take home less than 48 hours after a c-section. I don't know where you live in the US, but it's sure not where I live, or have ever lived, in the US.
When taken properly its fine. Ive been on opiods for almost 2 decades. Prescribed to me of course. I also get oxazepam for extreme panic attacks. Only take those as needed. Im not going to list all my meds because you will be making uneducated comments about my medical diagnosis just like you did this gentleman. This opinion is why chronic pain people are struggling with meds against the Governments.
@Tony Roberts they dont have patients for life though do they? Because now those of us that are chronically ill or are terminal with cancers etc cannot get proper pain medications or they have been cut off without warning.
@Tony Roberts u need to stop reading the news if u think thats what happened. There are people that actually need this stuff to function from illness. If the junkies wouldnt snort/shoot/smoke them then we wouldnt be battling the gov and people who have never lived in extreme REAL pain. Diagnosed people i mean. Not junkies or abusers.
I got into a motorcycle accident July 9th 2016 and it left me paralyzed from the chest down. I know how that guy feels. I’m glad everyone made a full recovery.
I was in a fatal car accident back in 1968. That was my only ambulance ride. I was put in a front seat, grandmother in the back. In those days ambulances were just taxis with sirens attached. Get the patient to the hospital asap where they can be treated. Never been in an ambulance since. It is amazing how much ambulances and the people who staff them have changed since then.
WonderDoc 👌🏻 First to arrive at the scene. Cpr started before anyone else had even realized what was going on. Calm, polite, decisive and ready to save lives 🙏🏻
We do have this service...mainly for severe injuries or when the patient is in a remote area and needs to get to the hospital quickly...it's called "Life Flight" along with several other names. I was a patient of Life Flight several years ago. They are incredible! Definitely had a big part in saving my life ...
I had a car accident about 7 most ago , i broke my leg and arm ,! Thank god the paramedics, and firefighters for their fast response, I can still remember the pain when they took me out of the car i pass out who knows how many times of the pain i was feeling, than they rushed me to the hospital, they talk to me all the way to the hospital to keep me awake,
Years ago, I saw a sign at the entrance of a neurological intensive care unit that read - If you want to visit a loved one here, buy them a motorcycle. Pretty stark message, I'd say.
A cousin misread his new medication instructions and had taken too many pills. He was acting strangely but in a hilarious way (put on a bow tie and fancy shoes with pj’s, saying he had to go to a fancy ball.) He was (and still is) an outrageous goofball, so it took his parents a minute to realize there was something wrong. It could have been very serious.
Back pain is no joke. There's a reason why it's the most common way to get prescribed prescription drugs because it's absolutely debilitating. My mom had to learn how to control her Oxicodon intake because she nearly overdosed just trying to get rid of the pain.
What scares me is a friend of my aunt is on gabapentin, morphine, a patch, two muscle relaxers, thyroid medication, plus anxiety meds. I worry too she may have an accidental OD. She is on a total of 14 medications.
Is there a way to donate what I can to this specific crew?? These videos make me realize how much they rely on donations only and who knows if the doctors and medics are even getting paid at all for their work!! That's crazy to me! Let's all donate what we can and help them out so they can save more lives!
So the anaphylactic patient was in a pharmacy, but still they hadn't given her any steroids, Epi, Salbutamol or antihistamines... Why? Due to legislation they can't take medications from stock if they are not OTC? Instead just letting her lay there, deteriorating?
That happened to my mom, she takes about the same as him but some more and she forgot she already took her muscle relaxers so she took them again and this pretty much happened, was scary as a teenager. Normally I help her remember but I was hanging with friends instead :/
I worked for an air ambulance service for 5 years, so I have a question here. How long away is the local paramedic medical response unit? It looks like a residential area and not a rural setting, so I am guessing that there is a local paramedic medical service. I don't understand the need for the use of a air medical service in this case. I am quite sure that a paramedic service has the same capabilities shown here. They transported by ground with a 30 minute ETA. The flight to the scene must have been close to that time. I'm just asking - not looking for an argument.
The air ambulance have a doctor on board, so when they are called it’s usually because the paramedics are in need of a doctors assistant. They don’t always use the helicopter to transfer them to hospital but sometimes the doctors will treat on scene and release to the ambulance crew to road transport or will go with the road crew and continue their treatment in the back.. Another reason for the air response is the location, the back/ high country is rather hard to navigate by ambulance in some areas and air ambulance is their best chance . And then you have the density of traffic , sometimes it’s hard for ambulance to navigate the roads because of traffic even with blue lights on . The motorway can get bogged down and there is no way to move any vehicle, no matter the status.
I hope they never stop making these series, it's so interesting watching them do their job, really loving it. Can't state enough what absolute heroes they are.
First Responders rock. I love Emergency Room staff as well. E.R. doctors and the specialist of infectious diseases once saved my life.

I had a car accident about 7 most ago , i broke my leg and arm ,! Thank god the paramedics, and firefighters for their fast response, I can still remember the pain when they took me out of the car i pass out who knows how many times of the pain i was feeling, than they rushed me to the hospital, they talk to me all the way to the hospital to keep me awake,
Dr. Pam is an absolute angel.
Well done you guys!
Wishing all the Paramedics on Air Ambulance a "MERRY, MERRY CHRISTMAS and A VERY, VERY PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR"
Thank you for uploading. It is a pitty that this is the only useful easy how I can see such shows here where I am.
Merry Christmas to you.
Years ago, I saw a sign at the entrance of a neurological intensive care unit that read - If you want to visit a loved one here, buy them a motorcycle. Pretty stark message, I'd say.
40:59 The camera shutter synced up perfectly with the tail rotor speed!
I’ve watched every one of these episodes!
Love getting notified when new vid comes up..
I’m not sure if this is the show to watch while eating..
Do you work in the medical field? LOL
Haha vn here. I can happily eat while watching something get dissected.
Thank you for your work
Good job guys
These people remind us of what we should do if our loved ones are down.
I cried at the intro, I'm too weak for this world. Thanks to everyone doing their job.
A cousin misread his new medication instructions and had taken too many pills. He was acting strangely but in a hilarious way (put on a bow tie and fancy shoes with pj’s, saying he had to go to a fancy ball.) He was (and still is) an outrageous goofball, so it took his parents a minute to realize there was something wrong. It could have been very serious.
wow what excellent job. For that first man James, they got there and got him back just in time!
Awesome job guys and girls👍👍👍👍👍🙂🙂
The farmer’s mom was so sweet.
TH-cam might encourage it, but premiere is not a cool feature.
porschiste911 why?
@@alfredfallegard6853 because it's just buggy and annoying.
Back pain is no joke. There's a reason why it's the most common way to get prescribed prescription drugs because it's absolutely debilitating. My mom had to learn how to control her Oxicodon intake because she nearly overdosed just trying to get rid of the pain.
Your are the HEROES
Will there be a season 3?
the conversation at about 43:00 is well done. a collaboration of everyone there. very impressive.
What absolutely incredible people
These are some great videos
They are Real life heroes😊
sometimes I feel like that's one huge add for ketamines LOL
absolutely amazing!!!!!
Earnestly awaiting season 3
What scares me is a friend of my aunt is on gabapentin, morphine, a patch, two muscle relaxers, thyroid medication, plus anxiety meds. I worry too she may have an accidental OD. She is on a total of 14 medications.
The body developes quite some tolerance over time
Great job
Is there a way to donate what I can to this specific crew?? These videos make me realize how much they rely on donations only and who knows if the doctors and medics are even getting paid at all for their work!! That's crazy to me! Let's all donate what we can and help them out so they can save more lives!
55mg of Diazapam! Mate really plus whatever else that guy is blessed
I can't believe his GP actually prescribed it all to be taken like that.
@@Nemshee Of course he didn't. He clearly took more than what he was supposed to take.
Why did he take 55mg of Diazepam?
Love this video. Thank you.
Dottie, Omaha Nebraska, USA. I love this show and am so happy it’s on TH-cam. Thank you. ✝️💯💜✝️💯💜
can you put in 2 patients Im new and this is amazing
Wouldn't it be nice if ground paramedics had flare guns that they could use when the chopper requests it?
So the anaphylactic patient was in a pharmacy, but still they hadn't given her any steroids, Epi, Salbutamol or antihistamines... Why? Due to legislation they can't take medications from stock if they are not OTC? Instead just letting her lay there, deteriorating?
I think I've seen first one from the ambulance crew perspective, it's cool to see different views!
Thank you for uploading!
That happened to my mom, she takes about the same as him but some more and she forgot she already took her muscle relaxers so she took them again and this pretty much happened, was scary as a teenager. Normally I help her remember but I was hanging with friends instead :/
I've never seen a bull so frightened though
That guys scream when they put on the tourniquet was horrific
@13:48, some doctors call motor cycles donor cycles.
I can't find my comment of the previous episode, but I want to thank you for answering my question. I am greatful :)
Dr Pam ♥️♥️♥️
Do you think you will upload more of these?
I would love to work with this when i get older
I worked for an air ambulance service for 5 years, so I have a question here. How long away is the local paramedic medical response unit? It looks like a residential area and not a rural setting, so I am guessing that there is a local paramedic medical service. I don't understand the need for the use of a air medical service in this case. I am quite sure that a paramedic service has the same capabilities shown here. They transported by ground with a 30 minute ETA. The flight to the scene must have been close to that time. I'm just asking - not looking for an argument.
The air ambulance have a doctor on board, so when they are called it’s usually because the paramedics are in need of a doctors assistant. They don’t always use the helicopter to transfer them to hospital but sometimes the doctors will treat on scene and release to the ambulance crew to road transport or will go with the road crew and continue their treatment in the back.. Another reason for the air response is the location, the back/ high country is rather hard to navigate by ambulance in some areas and air ambulance is their best chance . And then you have the density of traffic , sometimes it’s hard for ambulance to navigate the roads because of traffic even with blue lights on . The motorway can get bogged down and there is no way to move any vehicle, no matter the status.
Great series
