  • The final episode of the series has the inside story of how paramedics dealt with the fatal consequences of Storm Doris, which killed four people across the UK. In the control room they are fielding a third more calls than normal, caused by a surge in wind-related injuries. The reasons for these calls range from a fallen tree that has trapped three people in a car, to a 94-year-old who has been blown over feeding the birds. With wind speeds reaching over 60mph, the air ambulance has been grounded, and they face an agonisingly long journey by road to reach those affected.

    It’s so difficult for the elderly to take take of the elderly. Especially ones with dementia and Alzheimer's. It’s exhausting, frustrating and they’re no the person you know anymore. “Caregiver fatigue” is a real thing and I’m glad it’s recognized.
    You want your loved one with you, but sometimes, you have to have help!❤️

      We did it for my Grandma and that was when I was in my 20s. I cannot imagine doing it when you're elderly yourself! It sounded so easy, because she could walk and do her own toileting and bathing, basically just needed some supervision and assistance with medications, meal prep, and so on. I'm telling you, those six months nearly broke me. Partly because it devastated me to see my Grandma in that state and partly because it just never ends, there is literally ZERO break. I don't think I'd be able to cope if I was struggling with aging myself. Sounds awful to say and of course I would WANT to cope, but I just don't see how they do it.

Thankfully my brother also lives in our small town so I'm not the only one here for her. She knows us still now; but, I'm dreading the day that I walk in and she doesn't remember who I am.🥺 I just wish that everyone could love and take care of their loved ones, while they have the chance to.❣️

    This episode was a hard one. Often the ending of these episode leave you feeling happy when you find out how well the victims have recovered, but not this episode. This episode is a reality check that it’s not always a happy ending. This episode shows the hard side of the job that these heroes do, sometimes you get to a scene and there’s nothing you can do. I just want to pass on my condolences to the friends and loved ones of the people who passed in this episode.

    Part of living in senior housing is that most of your neighbors are in their 80s and 90s.

Obviously I'm glad i'm here (age 34) and thankful to my surgeon and the nurses and other staff who kept me alive! That said, the disease that precipitated the crisis is incurable and I'll need brain surgeries for life. (This was my 9th, but the first that wasn't scheduled and was a true emergency.) Part of me kinda feels like I want to live a couple more decades and then hope I die in surgery or something so I don't have to deal with this stuff.

    Both my dads parents ended up suffering from Alzheimer, my mother having dementia attached. Things where hard on my grandmother when grandpa started showing the symptoms. He ended up suffering a massive heart attack and falling face first on the floor just shy of their 50th. Because of his boxing days and his obesity he ended up suffocating but it was a widow maker heart attack so there was no recovery regardless. Then a few years later my grandmother was diagnosed... To boot she was barely in the ground when my father started down the Alzheimer's path (early on-set). Unable to work a job, and government refusing him disability despite his mental ability disappearing alarmingly fast; we literally lost our dad 5 years ago when they stuck him in a homeless shelter after police evicted him. IT's scary how this disease takes people differently and the fact in some families it quite possibly is genetic.

    We have hurricanes where I live in South Mississippi usually over 100 miles per hour so I know what it's like to go thru a bad storm. It's a bloody nightmare. Katrina in 2005 was the worst I have been thru. Our beach front was absolutely devastated.

      "Free" is a loose term. They have high taxes, long wait times for surgical procedures, and full hospitals. They have hospitals that regularly operate at full capacity making it challenging to handle large traumas such as natural disasters ect.

      I have dual citizenship. While I love the culture in the UK, I have personally chosen to have any major health concerns addressed in the US. For example, my child had surgery on a kidney and we did that in the US. I had spinal surgery following an accident and that was also done in the US. More expensive, yes. Higher standard of care, quicker service, and more advanced medical equipment, also yes. Both systems have pros and cons and room for improvement.

    These guys are great. Pure human beings. And it looks like they're well funded. It's the same here in Toronto Canada. Not sure about the rest of the country though. Here in TO, our EMS service is great. Unfortunately, there isn't enough of them for this massive and dense city. They even have EMTs that specialize in mental health calls. Been saved 5 times from suicide. They were so kind and understanding. They knew where I lived, knew my parents, and one of the three officers was always the same. This was years ago. Now a days, I'm much better. In a relationship 7 years strong. Great relationship with my parents. And I'm a business owner of three years.
    The EMS services world wide need the funding they ask for. Nothing less is acceptable. So many lives will be lost they don't.

    I read the comments on these videos and I am seeing a common theme with them. The EMT in America are just as good as the UK are the only thing that makes it seem like they are not is the mindset of the patient. I am sure if you ask someone in the UK if their EMT are respectful depending on their mindset the may say no. However these shows are not about that. They are to show the life and death situations they have to face every day. I love and respect each and every one of them all over the world. They have the hardest job ever. Fire, police and ambulance. They have to see and deal with it before the Dr at the hospital. Life is not pretty nor is death. Live each day as if it were your last make it count. Bless all of you.

      More ambulances would mean more admissions to A&E. A&E are already struggling with accommodating the people coming into hospital. There are not enough beds. Beds are being taken up by people who could in some cases go home, but they can’t be discharged because the home care / home nursing isn’t in place to take care of them when they are discharged. It all needs a jolly good shake up.

    This is why they should build places where all the elderly can all be together. It should have hospital, rest home, assisted living and independent living all together. Elderly do so much better when there are others to see and talk to on a daily basis. There also should be places built for the people with mental health problems to be all together. That are like apartments with a hospital and small a small store so they don't need to get out.

    Some of us Americans don't really think the UK has weather other than a lot of rain with brief sunshine. Hearing about this devastating storm was a very real eye-opener. I think many Americans have the idea we have the worst storms ever, maybe because it's such a huge country and there is always some terrible storm somewhere in the states. It's not that we think we are special (maybe some do), it's that everything we read portrays Europe to have wonderful weather, always somehow perfect for whatever activity. That includes England, except with more rain. I have often though the UK was like Oregon's west coast, never too cold or too hot or too stormy, just a little chilly and wet. I am pretty sure someone from Oregon is going to dispute that, I only lived there about a year as a child. I have lovely memories of it, though.

    That old couple, the system definitely failed them. “Based on abnormal results” when I call pts with that they need to go immediately. They thought she could’ve had internal bleeding. Could’ve died waiting 8-9 hours for a EMS. That’s an emergency. I wouldn’t have waited.

      There are a LOT of NHS services that are innovating in this area. It's one of the great things about having a National Health Service rather than isolated groups - they have motives other than pure profit so they can be encouraged to innovate. For example, there is a new nursing speciality "metabolic nurses" that handle cases of old people with multiple illnesses: heart failure, diabetes, pancreatitis etc. They are prescribing nurses who travel around to their patients handling non-emergency calls, and they can review drugs, write prescriptions, and order help from other services. They work closely with social services to get their patients access to mobility aids and stuff they need to live better lives.
