Dr Humphrey: patient, compassionte, modest - and undoubtedly excellent medically: every medical student should watch this! A delightful man, just wonderful!
Its raining ambulances! I have reason to REALLY respect and admire ambulance people. A lot of them have been very kind to me. During some very bad times. Bless them.
My grandfather died of an aortic arch dissection with rupture many years ago.- 1965. He had been in the hospital with a “heart attack” a couple of weeks earlier and was released and died a day later. Turned out it was a dissection not a heart attack so he ruptured when he got home and was moving around more. They didn’t have terribly good ways to diagnose and treat back then. My father had a ballooned dissection to his abdominal aorta in 2012 with impending rupture and made it through surgery only because he was already in the hospital with an unrelated hip fracture. As a retired Paramedic and cardiac ICU nurse, aneurysms and dissections were among the most stressful patients we dealt with.
It certainly makes me wonder. I also had a younger cousin, in his late 40’s have a brain aneurysm which he survived. So I always watch my blood pressure and I think it’s time to have a screening done to be safe. I’ve talked with my siblings and our children also. I’ve not heard of aneurysms being genetic in anything I’ve read, but it’s possible.
I feel for everyone here that has had a family member who has suffered with an aortic dissection. My husband at the age of 55 had a celiac aortic dissection about 5 yrs ago. Thank God he is still here with us. His dad had one & had it repaired & his Uncle (his dads brother) had one & sadly passed away from complications. We have 3 sons & asked his specialist if our sons should be scanned. She said they have not proved yet that it’s genetic. We were told our sons should watch their blood pressure, also the heart rate. As our sons get a bit older they should each be scanned to take a look. My husband is on a beta blocker.😊
It is the patients like young Adam with the attitude, that contribute to staff being cynical and jaded. I adore Jane the volunteer, only someone with her chutzpah could kids a doctor like she does, Bless her!
@@jenlou1434 I agree. Next time he comes in with his shoulder dislocated, they need to put it back in with no anesthesia!! Let it hurt badly enough that he listens to the doctors, gets surgery on his shoulder and keeps the joint properly together.
The U.S. could learn ALOT about this thing called compassion by watching a few of these. You treat your patients with resect. If you break a bone or have some other painful injury in the U.S. they don't give pain relief. No gas and air, no pain meds just dirty looks and oh wells. You guys are lucky to have such good care
Never had that happen ever. Don’t know where you live but that doesn’t happen unless you are in some off the map backwards hospital. And even then most hospitals have pain meds. Broken bone= pain meds. Unless they are into torture.
I love watching these amazing heroes... all of them. Especially Jane, that totally awesome angel who volunteers her time and is a God sent to all those she help.
Last video I commented that "Nurses are angels", I would like to correct that with Doctors and Paras and all health care staff are indeed angels. Cheers!
I'm in the US also and I went to my GP a few weeks ago and I feel like I've been to see a used car salesman!!!! For the last several weeks I've been ignoring calls from the diagnostic center because they want to run every useless test imaginable so they can bill my insurance and get my copay. If I thought for one second, it was necessary I would gladly go but at this point I honestly believe it is their capitalistic way of padding their pocketbooks. I hate that we have to deal with this here in the US and any care we receive is substandard, not to mention they act like any information about our health is such a big secret that they can't even tell us. My own dad (and Mom) was within days of dying and instead of being honest and telling him or the family that his organs were shutting down they wanted to send him to every specialist in the county and not one of them ever said, "He is dying." He suffered with heart failure for years and they never offered to give him a pacemaker. Once he was too frail to endure the surgery to have one, only then did they then tell us what was wrong with him and that he was too frail to endure the surgery to have one. ASK ME IF I BELIEVE ANYTHING THESE QUACKS TELL ME!!!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!!!!!!!😡😤😡😤😡😤😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Is it just that they still call head nurses "Sister" in the UK, or are they actually nuns? My grandmother was a nurse back when the head nurses were nuns here in Canada, that's pretty neat that they keep that connection to history. I'm also, as usual with these British medical shows, in awe of how lovely all the staff are. It's hit or miss here in the hospital I find!
In South Africa we referred to as Sr or Rn, registered nurse. I've worked in operating theatres for many years & the only time a patient comes into theatre straight off the street no cleaning prep or anything done is an aortic aneurysm. Haven't seen many because sadly they don't often make it to hospital.
Man, that shoulder dislocation was Quite an irascible fella wasn't he? I excused it while he was in pain but not afterwards; Who would be so disrespectful of their doctor to the point of treating him like he's invisible?
I want Doctor Humphry/Humfry/or a spelling I am not getting. He cares and spends the time necessary for make sure he is caring for them. That is sorely lacking in many doctors and health professionals now a days. (I am in the USA also for what it is worth)
I love watching the dislocations. My ball and socket joints pop out all the time (and I can dislocate them on command) and I can put them back in easily. It's so strange to watch people have to be manipulated back into place.
Just doing an x-ray on the knee, does not show tears in the meniscus, or the ACL, or any other structures. They should have done an MRI. I know, because i have had several knee injuries. With this woman's age, that was lack of care.
Or they are in a lot of pain. I’m a 73 grandma and when I’m in pain I swear like a truck driver from the frustration of not being able to control the pain. I apologize in advance. Sorry.
I can never understand how people can be so rude to people that are making them well. Maybe they should keep Adam wide awake to pop that shoulder back in next time. Maybe then he’ll learn to listen to what they say. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Well one needs to be fully relaxed to pop a joint back into place, if not it can lead to some permanent damage. Also people react differently when in pain and/or drugs like sedatives.
You feel like telling that young man who had to have his shoulder popped in again to not come back then if he doesn’t want to listen and take advice. People can be just so foolish.
man that guy doesn't learn his lesson huh? he dislocated his shoulder, comes and gets it fixed, and then immediately takes off the damn sling. i hope it dislocates again and the doctors just 'well we told you so.' don't even put him under the next time make him FEEL IT. then he might listen.
i will have a partial disolcation , or what i call a 'slip' in my ny right shoulder , and i think it hurts worse than a fully dislocated shoulder . i have to wait until it works its way back into place , and the pain immeditely leaves , until it does its very painful
I'v got a dislucated shoulder for 6 years now. Do not have a med insurence anymore. Statehospitals don't whant to operate, say i am to old. 72 years now. This is southafrica. 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈😩
i think the dislocated shoulder guy is disocationg his shoulder on purpose for the drugs as hes habitual for 'showing' up with a dislocated shoulder . if i ever fully dislocated my shoulder , i'd look into rotor cuff repair, just sayin'.
He could have a condition that causes frequent dislocations. I have a friend that always had to go to the ER for shoulder dislocations, sometimes simple things like picking up a mug can cause dislocations for her. Took several years till she had surgery.
I believe that in the UK, they are called sisters and in the US, they are called nurses. I don't think there is any major differences between the two other than the different names for them
I noticed how Dr Kay (?) has a droop on the left side of his mouth. Has he always had it, or should he be checked for possible slight bleeding in the brain?
Sister Jane, I love when you had Grey hair. You are very attractive but you look so much younger with the Grey hair. I can’t wait but “dishwater is what I have. Mom went Grey in her 90s.
All of the compassion does not replace the good medicine we enjoy in the US. Send an aeortic dissection home?? Xray on a knee. Needs mri. I've seen this over and over in theses UK vids. My medical expertise is only personal, but see the budget tightness as risk of health and life.
Dr Humphrey: patient, compassionte, modest - and undoubtedly excellent medically: every medical student should watch this! A delightful man, just wonderful!
Will someone please untangle the red phones cord
That is a shame he moved away,
I loved the 89 year old, she has “ keep calm and carry on” down to an art, bless that generation!
Its raining ambulances! I have reason to REALLY respect and admire ambulance people. A lot of them have been very kind to me. During some very bad times. Bless them.

My Grandma went the same way in 1998. I feel for you. Thank goodness your Dad had your wisdom and experience behind him. 💕
do you think you might have something similar.. as in do you think its genetic?
It certainly makes me wonder. I also had a younger cousin, in his late 40’s have a brain aneurysm which he survived.

I just don't understand why they don't repair it. It's a ticking time bomb.
This Dr is a gem nice way of talking to the patients
It is the patients like young Adam with the attitude, that contribute to staff being cynical and jaded.

Adam is annoying as he expects them to help then runs off
@@jenlou1434 I agree. Next time he comes in with his shoulder dislocated, they need to put it back in with no anesthesia!! Let it hurt badly enough that he listens to the doctors, gets surgery on his shoulder and keeps the joint properly together.
@@xo2quilt I agree
@@jenlou1434 If he was in the US and had to pay for anesthesia as well as treatment, he'd have a different attitude.

What a stupid comment.

i've never had that problem with staff in an E.R .
they were always helpful and attentive , and laughed the way i'd answer some of their questions .
Especially here in az
I was just thinking the same thing
I love watching these amazing heroes... all of them. Especially Jane, that totally awesome angel who volunteers her time and is a God sent to all those she help.
I love Dr Humphries. He can doctor me any time!
Love the charge nurse's attitude towards paramedics. When I worked, they were looked down upon by many nurses.
Last video I commented that "Nurses are angels", I would like to correct that with Doctors and Paras and all health care staff are indeed angels. Cheers!
Jane you are a gem.
Yes she is 🤗😘
She is awesome!
Everytime I hear a siren I say a prayer, I've done it all my life.
Every time i see an ambulance i say a prayer to.🙏🏻
Doctor julian is so lovely.I wish every hospital had a julian,He is so kind jolly and an asset to the nhs
Stay in shape and healthy really matter here , when u get sick you bounce back faster.
Thanks for the universal healthcare porn. In the US, can’t imagine being treated with such kindness and not going bankrupt.

I wish they were like this in my city, most of them are rude and act like you're a bother.
You know you're getting old when the doctors only look about 16.
Is it just that they still call head nurses "Sister" in the UK, or are they actually nuns? My grandmother was a nurse back when the head nurses were nuns here in Canada, that's pretty neat that they keep that connection to history.

I bet that kid was back with a dislocated shoulder within a year or less.
Well pop it in with no drugs next time and see if he leaves again.
Very great Staff, they need a pay raise, I think, and more supplies, and med's and surgeon
I want Doctor Humphry/Humfry/or a spelling I am not getting. He cares and spends the time necessary for make sure he is caring for them. That is sorely lacking in many doctors and health professionals now a days. (I am in the USA also for what it is worth)

Gotta say I like the “healthy draw” 😂😂 who would have known that Jaffa cakes are one of your 5 a day haha
Just doing an x-ray on the knee, does not show tears in the meniscus, or the ACL, or any other structures. They should have done an MRI. I know, because i have had several knee injuries. With this woman's age, that was lack of care.
Plus they need a Truma Emergency Room, with etc..
They do have trauma rooms in the A&E.
Or they are in a lot of pain. I’m a 73 grandma and when I’m in pain I swear like a truck driver from the frustration of not being able to control the pain. I apologize in advance. Sorry.
It’s alright…Ms. Granny!
I had 15 shoulder dislocations (in US) they never gave me sedation or pain meds! Had to have surgery to keep it in
I can never understand how people can be so rude to people that are making them well. Maybe they should keep Adam wide awake to pop that shoulder back in next time. Maybe then he’ll learn to listen to what they say. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️

Love that lady ..Love n hugging xxx

The very healthy drawer is an awfully funny drawer.
man that guy doesn't learn his lesson huh? he dislocated his shoulder, comes and gets it fixed, and then immediately takes off the damn sling. i hope it dislocates again and the doctors just 'well we told you so.' don't even put him under the next time make him FEEL IT. then he might listen.
If I’d had my shoulder do that 30 times I’d be a bit stroppy too!!
WHY would the doctors not have repaired the aortic dissection IMMEDIATELY??
There are two types of aortic dissection,one needs surgery,one do not!There are type a and type b!!!
That shoulder patient is ungrateful
i will have a partial disolcation , or what i call a 'slip' in my ny right shoulder , and i think it hurts worse than a fully dislocated shoulder .
i have to wait until it works its way back into place , and the pain immeditely leaves , until it does its very painful
Oh look the doctor made the bed just like the ones we have in the US hhhhhh.
Mr.Adam and his wife, and my mom helping me
Why they don't have Truma Air Ambulance built at their hospital also
Um....do you mean Trauma?
Most major hospitals have helipads but the helicopter will be stationed at a local airport or military base.
Healthy snack drawer…I say potato chips and dip are healthy…veggies and dairy!
I lovE this healthy draw
I'v got a dislucated shoulder for 6 years now. Do not have a med insurence anymore. Statehospitals don't whant to operate, say i am to old. 72 years now. This is southafrica. 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈😩
Connect St.Jude alone with this hospital
Old Phil is peely-wally.
i think the dislocated shoulder guy is disocationg his shoulder on purpose for the drugs as hes habitual for 'showing' up with a dislocated shoulder .
if i ever fully dislocated my shoulder , i'd look into rotor cuff repair, just sayin'.
He could have a condition that causes frequent dislocations. I have a friend that always had to go to the ER for shoulder dislocations, sometimes simple things like picking up a mug can cause dislocations for her. Took several years till she had surgery.
Soooo what happened with the heart dissection guy ?
They mention he was hospitalized for 1 week and then sent home on close observation.
What is the difference between a sister & a nurse?
I believe that in the UK, they are called sisters and in the US, they are called nurses. I don't think there is any major differences between the two other than the different names for them
Love JANE 😂
👍😳👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 for this TV show
Sister Jane can't keep her hands off the men, as usual.
I noticed how Dr Kay (?) has a droop on the left side of his mouth. Has he always had it, or should he be checked for possible slight bleeding in the brain?
Sister Jane, I love when you had Grey hair. You are very attractive but you look so much younger with the Grey hair. I can’t wait but “dishwater is what I have. Mom went Grey in her 90s.
Adam is so dam rude
Sorry, have to say it... the volunteer Jan? is the most irritating , abrasive woman imagineable...
Thought it was just me!
Agreed.
I'm glad someone had the courage to say it out loud. She would get on my last nerve if I had to work around her. Especially in a busy environment.
They could get more patients out if they reduced time from 4 to 2hours.
All of the compassion does not replace the good medicine we enjoy in the US. Send an aeortic dissection home?? Xray on a knee. Needs mri. I've seen this over and over in theses UK vids. My medical expertise is only personal, but see the budget tightness as risk of health and life.
There are two types of aortic dissection,one needs surgery,one do not!There are type a and type b!!!
And your lack of education is showing.
