As a Nurse, watching this is both relatable and inspiring for me that despite how horrid the career can be, I'm proud of my profession. Im honoured to be in a career thats helps people.
I’m proud of u!! Such a selfless act to dedicate ur life to help others in their darkest hour!! Ur right it’s honourable. Hopefully people are kind to u
As a mother who spent an awful lot of time in hospital with a son who has cystic fibrosis, I'm so thankful for the wonderful nurses who helped us, in ED, on the ward and in ICU. Good nurses are so important to us in hospital ❤️
To all doctors, nurses, and first responders. You are all heroes! Thank you so much for everything that you do. You have personally saved my life. Without y’all, I would not be alive today.
As you well should be! We do love you and thank you. (well...hard to love those in my home town and all neighboring counties they've monopolized. lordy they are so arrogant and rude. I kid you not, we locals drive at least 100 miles or more to not deal with them. My granddaughter was born almost 3 hours away for those reasons. I wish they were just half as caring as we see here! I love watching these masters!)
Wanted to be a nurse. Parents talked me out of that career. Didn't know until I was pregnant that I had suffered brain damage at 14 years old. Wish they had explained things long ago. But, I compromised. Became a nurse's aid and home health aid instead. Loved it!
I give my deepest gratitude to all the people who work in the medical field! More than once have they saved my life. Wishing I could take their horrors away and replace them with laughter, peace and happiness always! Thank you medical staff!
But still our gov trying to do as much harm as they can do to us. Taken away our parking and asking us to pay $27 a day to pay private companies. Or else we have to park on street 1 or 2km away and walk to car in non light in night around 11pm.
I grew up on a ranch near Laramie, Wyoming, knowing lots of tough, stoic mountain people. A friend who works in Emergency in town, told me that if “flat landers” come in screaming and say their pain is way over ten, he treats them as best he can, of course, but when a person from the mountains or ranches come in saying nothing but “I’m feelin a bit poorly,” he has to restrain himself from calling for the crash cart asap. Culture matters a lot.
That's the truth. Totally copy, that was expressed so accurately! But also in MN when entire towns and escape routes got flooded out and people died, Farmers were refusing grants for those that 'really' needed help despite being completely at a loss - farm animals gone and homesteads and land under 8' of water or more for as far as the eyes could see. If you didn't live there, you did not know where any road was anymore. And then, just a few months later, the MN freeze set in and noone was ready. Espy not any little trailer. One little town had one lonely maintenance guy working so hard to thaw out everyone's lines. No one complained. Yes. Culture sure does matter.
Being a paramedic, If we've sedated and restrained someone, there's usually a reason, P.s people coming down off ice don't normally like sternal rubs 🤣
My sodium level was 121 and I didnt respond at all to sternal rubs nor calling in my ear. When I came to, I was surprised to see the staff hovering around my bed.
Yes I totally agree. I'm an ED nurse. The patient was asleep and stable. she woke him with a painful sternal rub. Why not just let him sleep. All hell broke lose after that. Seemed antagonistic and unnecessary.
It's hard not to take behaviour like that of this patient personally in the heat of the moment. Great to see she has the awareness that he is not behaving like he does to annoy her and her colleagues. A lot of things have to go wrong in a person's life to reach that state. I hope she can keep her compassion without burning out.
I've talked to people on ice. One said that he started seeing things. Horrible things. Like birds with cat faces. People melting in front of them. And he said he thought that there were tubes in his body sucking all his insides out. Why do people take things like that?
A very important thing in Dr- patient interaction is the patient autonomy . If he woke up unagitated and yet strapped that would be violation of his right . Patient dignity is very important. When there in indication of staff feels verbally and physically assaulted then you restrain .
I had to look away when they had to straighten out the fractured/dislocated ankle 😷🤮 I nearly felt that... jesus. Makes you wonder why they couldn't just put him under general anesthesia when they can do it for minor procedures.
Oh my. I have so much gratitude for the staff who've chosen emergency medicine, because then I could devote my career to my first choice...geriatrics & oncology. I just retired after 52 1/2 years, finishing as a Hospice nurse.
As an ER Dr in the states, I would send the open fracture dislocation directly to the OR. Exception would be if there was no pedal pulse. Then immediate reduction is indicated.
Yes, this is what I’d expect as a now retired RN from the US. I’m surprised at the lack of quick and adequate response to this and other injuries I’ve seen on these shows.
I have a lot to thank The Royal Melbourne Hospital for Im a Tasmanian and had to fly to Melbourne for several operations and medical procedures back in the 1980s. The staff were awesome,they knew i was away from my State and had 2 young daughters back at home and had just.become a single Mum. I couldnt praise the Surgeons and medical staff for everything they did for me especially when i had extended stays at the hospital
I'm not a doctor let alone an ER doctor, but it seems to me that when EMS tells you they sedated a violent patient, maybe it's best to put him in restraints before the sedation wears off. It's easier to take restraints off a passive patient than it is to put them on a violent one. Safer, too.
Patient sedated for aggression... "Let's keep sternal rubbing him over and over" Great idea! The outcome was entirely as expected! Also someone needs to turn off that Alaris pump in the background holy
bro THANK YOU. like as a former emergency nurse, just let him sleep of the droperidol. jaw thrust him if you have to for airway patency. but dont bloody sternal rub him and expect him to wake up and smile hahah
For the electrician, I was yelling at my screen for the doctor to give him morphine. Please, knock him TF out to give him some relief! My mom fell and dislocated and broke her shoulder and the ER gave her morphine.
Agreed! I thought that too. It's being done in some places. Maybe here too, we just might not know about it? But yes. I recorded my kid once, rather humbling. It works.
Decades ago, in Canberra perpetrators of minor traffic infringements were made to watch video of MVAs. Not sure if it's still the practice....maybe political correctness has put a stop to it🙄
I've watched a bunch of these episodes, and I have yet to see a patient in pain actually benefit from Ketamine. As a patient, I don't want to feel disconnected or experience hallucinations, I want pain relief.
The ketamine is mostly used, from what l have seen, to create a disconnect when something really painful must be don e, usually dealing with a fracture. The doc tells them “ you will feel it, but you won’t remember feeling it”. They then use morphine or dilaudid (so?) for pain relief.
That sounded more like a demonic possession than a drug bender, I don't know how yall do this, I would not have been able to stay in that room. So scary. Thank you for your service.
I work in a 55 bed er. With only 5 psych rooms. Every hospital around us have a psych area. But for some reason they by pass them and bring every one like this to us. Some nights i am the only tech in two areas and have to babysit these guys. Its hard to find compassion especially when they hurt us so bad. And the repeat ones burn me up. I have to one on one them and my already super short stafffed nurses are taking multiple traumas, strokes and emergent patients on top of the people who abuse the er as a clinic. Mu er nurses are taking 5 patients and lose a tech and all security with these out of control patients
You are a tech. You keep referring to nurses as "my nurses". They aren't YOURS. You are at the bottom of the hierarchy there, tech, with scribes, receptionist, registrars and such. I've watched the techs "babysit" patients (usually sleeping) one-on-one, and it's observing them on camera from outside the room, while the techs doom scroll their phones, snacking, talking with everyone, play games on the phone, text and such. Not exactly a tough job and definitely not 'medical personnel'. Support staff, thats it.
When my son was a leukemia patient and needed a spinal tap, they gave him ketamine. He made me promise to never let them give it to him again. He absolutely hated it!
I am with your son. Never, never again would I let them use ketamine on me. I'll Endure the pain before I will deal with the hallucinations and coming down from the ketamine. Horrible horrible stuff
@@kefelonia1 Sure, let’s risk injuring the sick guy even more. /s You don’t physically strike _anyone_ when they’re like that if they can be restrained, which they were able to do. Wtf is wrong with you?
I hope the ice affected guy watches this video and it is enough for him to stop. I feel Mostly for all the hospital workers plus the patients near by that had to go through such a horrific time. I hate drugs so much.
I feel if someone don’t want to be rescued the medical staff should be allowed to let them leave and come back if and when they want to be saved. Luck for that nurse she was used to working with animals
Sure,they leave and then come back a day later with a lawyer and try to sue, saying they didn’t provide proper care. Working with animals you often get bitten.
@@barbarawhite4257 guess it might just be easier and safer to put the really rabid ones down before they have time to kick off then, just have to keep some of the knock out juice for when it’s the lawyers turn to go though.. There’s nothing I hate more than not being completely aware and in control of myself in my surroundings so when I see people so out of it I can’t comprehend why they would want to be or allow themselves to become so intoxicated that they have no recollection of what happened for hours of their life and what they might have gotten themselves into in that time. It’s right up there with tight spaces and dentists for me.
Yes, speaking as someone who has lived that life and managed to get the help I needed to make it out alive, I can understand both sides. However, it it true that not (if not all) addicts are using substances to escape from something in their life. I can understand when people have a hard time feeling bad for us, but also understand that it is true that no one ever *wants* to become an addict and end up behaving like this man did in the show. No one ever takes drugs expecting to end up like this.
Another judgmental person that knows nothing about the disease of addiction. The CDC has classified it as a disease just so you know, I didn't. Do you think this man likes being sick? Do you think he probably would give anything to be better? I know, you've never thought about it. Obviously. My son died from an overdose two months ago. He was 19yrs old. He was a college student at a University with hopes of becoming an attorney. He had goals and dreams. He played baseball for the college. He had a girlfriend, great friends, a job , but most importantly, he had a family that adored him. I will never be the same. So, as you throw those stones from your glass house, maybe learn how to have some compassion for people. It's apparent that addiction has never touched your life or you would never make a comment as disgusting as you did. He doesn't deserve sympathy because he's an addict?? Wow.. You should be ashamed. 😢
@@alyssaroxanne9084 Good job you made it out. I'm proud of you! Not easy. Addiction is a disease like no other. Not to mention there is a whole network of people plus advertising working hard to make people addicts.
You never know what someone is going through. Maybe he’s been so traumatized in his life that he’s trying to escape reality. One can never really know what’s really going on in someone’s life.
The violence from the drugs is hard enough to deal with but when they spit and need physical restraint it’s so sad to see this happening to a generation of people.
Ce has that effect. St Vincent hospitals head doctor said that on a special on TV a few years ago. He said it was far worse than heroin... Ice addiction be so dangerous .I feel for those doctors and nurses and all in the hospitals.
@@stefanieebling2785 not everything needs to be given iv, there are main situations when IM needs to be used, like in this particular situation, or also when a patient is having a fit, of course there are other ways like rectally (midazo), but in this case it's definitely a better idea IM than rectally, and definitely more effective, and logic than IV, .. to say is different to do it, to be there forcing a man , full of energy and usually psychoactives substances aligning a needle, placing it as gentle to not cross the vein or avoiding the stasis and damage of it. At the end , medicine is not only theory but practice also, and any way, most of the guidelines around the World recommend the IM way in this situation with these medicines, so why not to follow the guidelines when it's also easier beside safer?
@@MD-rw6uh I didnt say everything had to be iv. I said its good for other things too. I work in healthcare, have for a long time. Im aware of the rest of what you said too. Theres really no need for a novel. I dont work for the service shown in the video, i dont know their practices.
Given that there there could be another Covid pandemic necessitating shielding masks etc. is anyone working on a microphone system where all the staff can hear each other without the strain of having to shout. Oh, and Governments preparing to be willing to finance this for their exhausted health care staff . . ?
My question is why wasn’t there at least one guy there to help? They knew he was combative. I’m not being sexist. But if he injured a nurse, as big as he is, I’d have had security there or a male nurse.
The green whistle as us aussies and new zealanders call it is some of the best stuff in the world when you F your self up. It's Methoxyflurane which is a analgesic just helps with really severe pain and it can of course make you very very happy in some cases. Ambulance and Lifeguards administer it the most i believe. usually 1 whistle will be enough before you are put on the hardcore painkillers. Just found out you yanks dont have it which is just crazy to me.
That mark guy with swollen eyes I'd a weird case. He thought he just fell in his house.. but multiple skull fractures, broken nose, ribs, spine??? That's a beating. How was that not caused by an attack???
Gravity is one meeeeean mother, that’s how. Many structures (stairs, counters, door jambs, window sills, chairs, tables, anything raised) inside a house can cause broken bones, and striking your head on any surface can result in your head bouncing and then falling back and striking it again, depending on the forces involved. That could cause multiple skull fractures. Also, the older you get, the more brittle your bones are, therefore easier to break.
I’ve been given Ketamine. It was an incredible experience. Honestly, I loved it a little too much. Lol I saw the most vivid colors that don’t even really exist in real life. As I was waking up, everything started to look so dull and depressing. I told the nurse. She said “Ketamine is a hell of a drug. Isn’t it?” It doesn’t last long at all. That’s one of the benefits of it.
Why was security not IN PLACE before the seriously "disordered" patients were awoken?? As a retired RN.... you'd better make sure you PROTECT the nursing staff....they are not punching bags!!!
Good grief! Why didn't they put him in restraints before they woke him up and the guy with the broken foot. Why didn't they give him pain meds in the ambulance?
They did give the guy with the broken foot pain meds. They even clearly explained it. It's the 'Green Whistle' he was sucking on that they told him to take a deep breathe of before transferring him. But they did say after he was transferred they'd give him better medication, but couldn't until he was ON the bed. And you watch him take two deep inhales of the 'Green Whistle" and they transfer him. "The pain-relieving drug Penthrox™ (commonly known as the green whistle). Penthrox is an analgesic used by medical practitioners, the defense forces, ambulance paramedics, sports clubs and surf lifesavers to administer emergency pain relief."
Eh, not sure if you have ever been to Australia, but this place is freaking massive, roughly 90% of the population lives on 0.22% of the continents land mass. It means that outside of that 0.22% of the land mass, the population density is unreal. For example, Anna Creek is a cattle station larger than Israel, only about 12 people live in Anna Creek. In Australia, the population density in 2021 was at 3.35 people per square kilometre. In America, the population density in 2021 was 34.41 people per square kilometre. It makes it difficult to allocate resources. There just aren't enough people in the outback close enough together for a hospital with a trauma centre to be useful, which is why we have air ambulances and the Royal Flying Doctors service. Its more efficient and safer to just fly them to the major trauma centre. Here is a video about how tiny Australia's population is compared to its size. th-cam.com/video/TnB_8Zm9lPk/w-d-xo.html
There is a maximum of pain relief possible before it becomes dangerous,at that point you can’t affect the pain anyway. You can’t just “give it”. It’s called an overdose. Heard of it?
@@barbarawhite4257 yes I have! I have also heard of being in absolute agony - of course pain relief is carefully managed - but it became evident that person WAS able to have pain relief, they just took their bloody time getting around to it - I am sure , however, that you would wait patiently while in absolute agony
@@barbarawhite4257 coincidence - me also - but it was your CHOICE during childbirth - I daresay it was not the patient's choice in this instance - they wanted some relief

I feel if someone don’t want to be rescued the medical staff should be allowed to let them leave and come back if and when they want to be saved. Luck for that nurse she was used to working with animals
Sure,they leave and then come back a day later with a lawyer and try to sue, saying they didn’t provide proper care. Working with animals you often get bitten.
@@barbarawhite4257 guess it might just be easier and safer to put the really rabid ones down before they have time to kick off then, just have to keep some of the knock out juice for when it’s the lawyers turn to go though.. There’s nothing I hate more than not being completely aware and in control of myself in my surroundings so when I see people so out of it I can’t comprehend why they would want to be or allow themselves to become so intoxicated that they have no recollection of what happened for hours of their life and what they might have gotten themselves into in that time. It’s right up there with tight spaces and dentists for me.
do you mean the druggo? They cant let him leave as a mater of public safety. If he's that far off the wall he could do anythng to anyone
I don't watch Aussie T.,V very much, but this was really good!
Thanx for the U/L
So glad Mark eyesight was ok 👍
I absolutely love these episodes! The only thing I don't like is that there aren't any Closed Captions😞
AGREED! I'm Hard of Hearing and with the accents, chaos and such, it was a hard listen.
I’m a medical student and idk if i ever can be like them I don’t want to hurt anyone
Kids should be required to shadow trauma doctors at least for 1 month before they're allowed to graduate high school.
It is hard to feel bad for someone who purposely took drugs to do this to themselves. It is also hard to want to help them when they are so violent.
We know nothing of his life. Most people with addiction have it for a reason, and probably not something we can understand as haven't lived it
Yes, speaking as someone who has lived that life and managed to get the help I needed to make it out alive, I can understand both sides. However, it it true that not (if not all) addicts are using substances to escape from something in their life. I can understand when people have a hard time feeling bad for us, but also understand that it is true that no one ever *wants* to become an addict and end up behaving like this man did in the show. No one ever takes drugs expecting to end up like this.
Another judgmental person that knows nothing about the disease of addiction. The CDC has classified it as a disease just so you know, I didn't.
Do you think this man likes being sick?
Do you think he probably would give anything to be better? I know, you've never thought about it. Obviously.
My son died from an overdose two months ago. He was 19yrs old. He was a college student at a University with hopes of becoming an attorney. He had goals and dreams. He played baseball for the college. He had a girlfriend, great friends, a job , but most importantly, he had a family that adored him.
I will never be the same.
So, as you throw those stones from your glass house, maybe learn how to have some compassion for people.
It's apparent that addiction has never touched your life or you would never make a comment as disgusting as you did. He doesn't deserve sympathy because he's an addict?? Wow.. You should be ashamed. 😢
@@alyssaroxanne9084
Good job you made it out.
I'm proud of you!
Not easy.
Addiction is a disease like no other.
Not to mention there is a whole network of people plus advertising working hard to make people addicts.
No it's not.
Omg not the ankle guy trying to see who was touching his ankle 😅
TRY SEDATING THE PATIENT BEFORE SETING HIS BROKEN ANKLE .
TRY KEEPING YOUR UNQUALIFIED ADVICE TO YOURSELF!
Holy Moly, seeing the guy on drugs makes me wonder why in the world would anyone do drugs???
You never know what someone is going through.
Maybe he’s been so traumatized in his life that he’s trying to escape reality.
One can never really know what’s really going on in someone’s life.
I get it it's a TV show. But real people. He quieted down and was chill when she went to get glasses, maybe he just wants to be left alone?
The violence from the drugs is hard enough to deal with but when they spit and need physical restraint it’s so sad to see this happening to a generation of people.
Ce has that effect.
St Vincent hospitals head doctor said that on a special on TV a few years ago.
He said it was far worse than heroin...
Ice addiction be so dangerous .I feel for those doctors and nurses and all in the hospitals.
Why would they not have strapped him down while he was sedated and immediately put a spit guard on him
His voice sounds like it's coming from a horror movie
Why would anyone do that to themselves? Take such drugs and then take up money and time from the healthcare system🤦
Why not IM medicine with the agitated patient instead of struggling with the IV line?
Probably because IV access is good for more than just meds, and not everything can be given IM
@@stefanieebling2785 I had patients like this in the ED. Usually 2 mg of Ativan IM knocked them out cold.
@@stefanieebling2785 we use im halodol, then once calmed and/or restrained, you put in an iv.
@@stefanieebling2785 not everything needs to be given iv, there are main situations when IM needs to be used, like in this particular situation, or also when a patient is having a fit, of course there are other ways like rectally (midazo), but in this case it's definitely a better idea IM than rectally, and definitely more effective, and logic than IV, .. to say is different to do it, to be there forcing a man , full of energy and usually psychoactives substances aligning a needle, placing it as gentle to not cross the vein or avoiding the stasis and damage of it. At the end , medicine is not only theory but practice also, and any way, most of the guidelines around the World recommend the IM way in this situation with these medicines, so why not to follow the guidelines when it's also easier beside safer?
@@MD-rw6uh I didnt say everything had to be iv. I said its good for other things too. I work in healthcare, have for a long time. Im aware of the rest of what you said too. Theres really no need for a novel. I dont work for the service shown in the video, i dont know their practices.
Dr Papson is great
Given that there there could be another Covid pandemic necessitating shielding masks etc. is anyone working on a microphone system where all the staff can hear each other without the strain of having to shout. Oh, and Governments preparing to be willing to finance this for their exhausted health care staff . . ?
12:24 12:45 i deal with this every time i work at Albury Base Hospital
Is there a reason why the first guy wasn’t restrained before waking him up? That seems unusual.
My question is why wasn’t there at least one guy there to help? They knew he was combative. I’m not being sexist. But if he injured a nurse, as big as he is, I’d have had security there or a male nurse.
Security was there.
Every one of these patients is absolutely at the top end of catastrophe!
Can't someone just have a splinter or something?
What is that "green pen" all Abt? I'm in the U.S. not familiar with this?
The green whistle as us aussies and new zealanders call it is some of the best stuff in the world when you F your self up.
It's Methoxyflurane which is a analgesic just helps with really severe pain and it can of course make you very very happy in some cases. Ambulance and Lifeguards administer it the most i believe. usually 1 whistle will be enough before you are put on the hardcore painkillers.
Just found out you yanks dont have it which is just crazy to me.
It's a form of pain relief for the patient. :)
Looks similar to 'gas and air' that they use in the UK programmes. In those, it's nitrous oxide (laughing gas.)
the Penthrox green whistle is a non-opioid pain relief inhaler commonly used in trauma settings for self-administration
Mark's injuries is a bit suspicious.
Sad thing about the drugged man is he will return in same state. I too am a nurse.ove Royal Melbourne.
Wow. Time for some im haladol!
good ole haloperidol, with some lorazapam
@@samanthaparris6379 woukd have solved that problem fast!
Never use a ladder with a chain saw. You Tube can show you lots of examples of what can go wrong, and they all involve falling off the ladder.
how awesome is mya :))
That mark guy with swollen eyes I'd a weird case. He thought he just fell in his house.. but multiple skull fractures, broken nose, ribs, spine??? That's a beating. How was that not caused by an attack???
I think two contributing factors - gravity & age. Aging bones are fragile😅
Gravity is one meeeeean mother, that’s how.
Many structures (stairs, counters, door jambs, window sills, chairs, tables, anything raised) inside a house can cause broken bones, and striking your head on any surface can result in your head bouncing and then falling back and striking it again, depending on the forces involved. That could cause multiple skull fractures.
Also, the older you get, the more brittle your bones are, therefore easier to break.
Im glad I've never been given Ketamine.
I have. Weirdest. Experience. _Ever._
I’ve been given Ketamine. It was an incredible experience. Honestly, I loved it a little too much. Lol
I saw the most vivid colors that don’t even really exist in real life. As I was waking up, everything started to look so dull and depressing. I told the nurse. She said “Ketamine is a hell of a drug. Isn’t it?”
It doesn’t last long at all. That’s one of the benefits of it.
Why was security not IN
PLACE before the seriously "disordered" patients were awoken??
As a retired RN.... you'd better make sure you PROTECT the nursing staff....they are not punching bags!!!
The hospital handled that drug dude terribly, its a 3 out of 10 from me
Fantastic TV show
That blonde nurse should be a model. She is GORGEOUS 💝
What the flapjacks does that have to do with her job?
🎶 Would you rescue me 😏 nice intro LOL
What are we to believe? The news we see on our local stations or this
Good grief! Why didn't they put him in restraints before they woke him up and the guy with the broken foot. Why didn't they give him pain meds in the ambulance?
They did give the guy with the broken foot pain meds. They even clearly explained it. It's the 'Green Whistle' he was sucking on that they told him to take a deep breathe of before transferring him. But they did say after he was transferred they'd give him better medication, but couldn't until he was ON the bed. And you watch him take two deep inhales of the 'Green Whistle" and they transfer him. "The pain-relieving drug Penthrox™ (commonly known as the green whistle). Penthrox is an analgesic used by medical practitioners, the defense forces, ambulance paramedics, sports clubs and surf lifesavers to administer emergency pain relief."
sounds like rural victoria needs a trauma centre
Eh, not sure if you have ever been to Australia, but this place is freaking massive, roughly 90% of the population lives on 0.22% of the continents land mass. It means that outside of that 0.22% of the land mass, the population density is unreal. For example, Anna Creek is a cattle station larger than Israel, only about 12 people live in Anna Creek.
In Australia, the population density in 2021 was at 3.35 people per square kilometre.
In America, the population density in 2021 was 34.41 people per square kilometre.
It makes it difficult to allocate resources. There just aren't enough people in the outback close enough together for a hospital with a trauma centre to be useful, which is why we have air ambulances and the Royal Flying Doctors service. Its more efficient and safer to just fly them to the major trauma centre.
Here is a video about how tiny Australia's population is compared to its size. th-cam.com/video/TnB_8Zm9lPk/w-d-xo.html
100%
They wouldn't be fecking around with pain relief if it was their ankle - just give it
Are you a nurse or doctor??
There is a maximum of pain relief possible before it becomes dangerous,at that point you can’t affect the pain anyway. You can’t just “give it”. It’s called an overdose. Heard of it?
@@barbarawhite4257 yes I have! I have also heard of being in absolute agony - of course pain relief is carefully managed - but it became evident that person WAS able to have pain relief, they just took their bloody time getting around to it - I am sure , however, that you would wait patiently while in absolute agony
@@peacewarrior1175 Yes,twice. They called it childbirth
@@barbarawhite4257 coincidence - me also - but it was your CHOICE during childbirth - I daresay it was not the patient's choice in this instance - they wanted some relief
Heroes one and all
Both drs wonderful
Mya are you from New Zealand 🇳🇿?
There must be some men in the team in case muscle power needed
The man they restrained seemed like he was demon possessed.
Urgent need to call some burly cops and security guards.
Paramedics have a dangerous job sometimes with drug overdoses ...
