My son was picked up by MEDIVAC HERE IN THE States. They let me fly with him and what an awakening. The things they do to a person while flying through the air. By car it would have been over an hour but by helicopter it was six minutes from load to Hospital roof top. Absolutely crazy. God bless them and all they do. They saved my son’s life and were embarrassed when I said thank you……..True Heroes
EMT from the U.S. here. it can be incredibly difficult to deal with these situations, and this crew did an outstanding job. not only that, but the wife was very calm and that in itself can be incredibly difficult but she pulled through and the team did an amazing job.
@@bepowerification people who live in the US obviously have to work. Yes it would be awesome for us all to have the health care that you have but we don’t, so we are very grateful for our first responders as well.
I am retired and much of what they do seems to be copied from Cleveland clinic model, very ADVANCED CARE delivered via rural ems. If this is a nhs standard could we copy the entire nhs
In my country, we're light years behind of all these resources. UK people need to keep supporting them, You're lucky to have them. Nice work rescue teams. Cheers to you all
When you don't have it. Like myself still stuck on a foreign country where even the ambulance won't take a dying person to hospital unless you pay 100s $ first or will dump you on the side of a road people will never understand.
I love how in these episodes, I’ve noticed that if these houses in England have anything, it’s a narrow hallway and staircase that’s difficult to navigate! Lol 🤣😉💕🤷🏻♀️ these guys are amazing though for all their patients!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can relate to the bee sting guy! Last fall I collapsed in the hospital parking lot with no one around. I was rescued just in time. I did not know I had a bee allergy! I was in ICU for 18 hours.
Everybody should be taught CPR & Advanced First Aid. And not once, we should have refresher training every 5 years. What is one of the most important skills on earth makes you wonder why is it not on the school curriculum of every country on earth? I would vote for dropping an extra couple of classes of trigonometry for CPR.
i 100% agree. as an EMT, first aid and basic CPR skills should be a necessity for everyone in my opinion. It can be incredibly stressful to deal with but it can be life saving.
In any school I’ve been In (5) it’s mandated to pass your last year of high school if you don’t do it you don’t get to graduate and they have them from 8-12 grades.
In Girl Scouts for 12 years as a child and as a volunteer for my nieces' Girl Scout troop for 15 years. As a scout, our troop leaders felt it was important enough that we recertified every year. My nieces' troop does it about every 3 years because classes for underage kids are much harder to find these days. In the Army, we recertified every 6 months. I agree with you that it's a necessary skill that should be taught to all students and adults. Swimming and water safety and rescue should be as well. I'm a generational Floridian, and I can't tell you how many people go to the beach and into pools that can't swim and don't know what to do in a riptide, etc. It's all very frightening. Parents certainly need to be knowledgeable about CPR and first aid as well. ❤
The idea of anaphylaxis or severe allergies is so terrifying to me, especially if it’s activated by bee/wasp stings, because you can be generally pretty in control of the food you consume (or are around), but you can’t really control where bees and wasps are! scary stuff D:
You can treat a wasp allergy. It is intensive but possible. A food allergy like pistache cant be treated. I rather have a wasp allergy then a food allergy
I swear that I have nothing but love in my heart, but that doctor that came to the guy with the heart attack could 100% pull off the best Edna Mode cosplay that the world has ever seen. Her size, her look, her body language.. It would be glorious! she would just have to make her nose a little bit bigger and it would be perfect!
After watching many of these rescue programs from the UK as well as many from the US, I would rather get into a bad situation in Britain! And I've been in a bad accident here in the US and was lucky I was in a wealthy area with lots of tax revenue to support EMT services. This was 50 years ago. No disrespect to US EMTs, I'm close to several people here who are rescue trained and first responders and thank goodness for them, but I'm so impressed with the level of support that seems to be standard in the UK. They can do RSI, give opioids and ketamine, actually intubate people and do surgeries in the field. It's so impressive!
As a paramedic in the US myself, we can do everything you said including some surgical procedures like cricothyrotomy, episiotomy, etc. The problem is since the US is not universal areas that are under funded cannot hire paramedics and can only hire EMTs which cannot give those types of medications
42:27 Parents, as a father myself, I understand your reluctance to let your children do dangerous things, especially after an accident, but the worst thing you can do is "Put your foot down" and force them to stop. It's scary having a child go through this kind of incident. You, as the parent, are the protector, but you are also the guide for that child. Forcing them to stop only teaches them to quit when things get tough. If they decide that they don't want to continue on their own, fine, but don't force them to stop when they want to get back on that horse and try some more. That should actually be commended. It's difficult to be hurt doing something and then turn around and want to face it in spite of having been through the dangers. They are literally concurring fears, and concurring the art of what they are doing. Travis Pastrana didn't become one of the most recognizable names in motocross by letting an injury stop him from getting back on the bike. That dude has broken 60 bones and dealt with 25 concussions (according to a google search made to specify the actual numbers based off of knowing that he has been injured a ridiculous number of times). Don't be that parent who holds your child back from the things that they love based on your own fear of it. You could be holding your child back from their natural passion in life. Let the child decide if the injury was worth it. Children are more preceptive and intelligent than we let them be in our society, and so much potential is lost based on the parents' experience in the world. Sometimes it is worth it, but many times its detrimental to the success of a free-spirited child. Life is scary. Its unpredictable. But the common factor is that the greatest people in our history books have always taken the risks. They didn't let the small failures hold them back. They persisted in the face of criticism and danger. Teach that. Not fear.
As someone who is allergic to wasp stings and I had a heart attack this stresses me so very much! Makes me want to stay in at all times! Thank God for these winged angels!!
It's even worse. One of the boys in the video was 8 years old! And one of the fathers erroneously stated that the boys ride in a *controlled* environment! 😕 No one but the biker himself is controlling his vehicle! Of course, the vehicle can malfunction as well! I do believe that some people should not be parents! 🤔
This is one advantage of living in the cities, we have hospitals every couple of miles! I think that I have only seen one helicopter taking a person to it but then again, I don't live near the hospital.
Your English homes are built to small and narrow. I've noticed that the doors and hallways are so narrow , there's hardly wide enough for one person let alone emergency equipment. Lynda in California
You are talking on another level, but yeah, this show is kind of confusing. I assume that they speak in US measurements. I don't hate it, because I can understand it without having to think twice about it, but they always talk in miles, and gallons, and other imperial measurements. We all know that the UK is Metric. That has been a bit odd to me since I discovered this show. I'm guessing that their primary audience is American.. not that I care either way, but I guess it means that the "American" imperial system is winning lmao. Me personally, I am fine with having the two separate systems. I don't see why we all have to use one. I think that a lot of people are getting to a point of naturally understanding the conversions without too much thought.
Heart attack is when your heart isn’t beating with a normal rhythm and cardiac arrest is when your heart stops. He had both a cardiac arrest is usually as a result of a heart attack…

The wipers on the helicopter always make me laugh. They're like little wacky waving arms going "woooo gotta clear the water!"
I didn't notice until I read this comment and now I can't focus on anything else but the wacky wipers. 😂
How i wish our country have this kind of rescue.. it would be awesome ❤️

This team did amazingly they all worked together as team to help this patient thanks to his wife who did CPR 🤩great job to his wife

I think that they may want to consider bigger windshield wipers in that helicopter 😂
the freaking GALL of those wasps, man
It's like..... not funny, but when the paramedic was describing how painful it was while the kid was screeching in the background was... so funny
Then he loads up a shot of ketamine and says to the dad he might freak out a bit. 😂

I love listening to this crisp, clear british accent of this channel narrator. Very uplifting and just lovely. Better than ugh Duke Dumbarton Harry .
Omg a father with an 8 year old he is letting doing motor cross????? Crazy 😮…
That brave kid in that motorcycle accident... Having 5 kids my self this was not easy to watch
Hats off to these wonderful health care providers. Winged Angels 👏🚑🚁

There's not much space in the UK, hence houses are smaller than the US, for example.
They're old, before stretchers and central heat were a thing. They were small in order to conserve heat.
Great work team!
One question, are all the houses brown in the suburbs in England?
this music reminds me of Emergency Down Under and the narratior too
Can anyone tell me if the pilot of an air ambulance is also a fully trained paramedic, or is he 'just' the pilot without any medical training?
Can be both, but can't do both jobs at the same time.
In my opinion, the poor gentleman that fell off of the ladder, was in a form of "shock".
That one guy had the dirtiest fingernails I have ever seen on a medical aid.
Where?
“Stat” means “Stat”,! That Doc was probably enjoying his “day off” when he was called for this Emergency.Didn’t have time to shower or clean up.
25:48 and refuel if can be done a whole imp gallon a minute i think

My heart breaks for these patients 🙏
They are getting the best help .. stop being dramatic.

Why some helicopter have tail rotor and some dont? Anybody expert can explain it to me
why do they say floor when they mean ground ?
Their accent!
Nothing to do with accents, just have different words to the US. Pavement v sidewalk for example.

It ain't CARDIAC ARREST IT'S HEART ATTACK. SINCE WHEN IS THE UK TAKING ON THE AMERICAN ACCENT.
Cardiac arrest is a heart attack 🤷 angry much? Lol
Heart attack is when your heart isn’t beating with a normal rhythm and cardiac arrest is when your heart stops. He had both a cardiac arrest is usually as a result of a heart attack…
People often use the terms interchangeably but medically they're not the same thing. A heart attack is when blood flow to the heart is blocked. Cardiac arrest is a state where the heart is not beating. A heart attack may lead to a cardiac arrest.
@@MsKittyGirl2010 cardiac arrest and heart attack are two different things.
It's not an American term. It's used when the heart has stopped or is in VF.
