Tonight's looks like it's going to be even better.

That poor girl is struggling and they're again fighting all they can to help.

It's not just the obvious medical skills that's impressive, it's the team work. There's no team meeting, project plan, or any of the other management tools that we're told we need. Just skilled, dedicated people acting together.

I remember watching that guy in a different programme doing the first REBOA in the UK. That was a great series showing the best of human endeavours. The NHS aint bad.

Fantastic episode again last night, whatever these people get paid, it is not enough. It must be mentally draining dealing with things like that day in and day out.

With the girl who lost her leg, quite scary when they mentioned that they have seen plenty of people with similar injuries not make it because they didn't get the same treatment at the roadside.

+1.
Along with the calm attitude under pressure, knowing that you have to get something done quickly & do it right or someone is going to die!

Properly amazing people doing this thing day in, day out without batting an eyelid.

Same for all of our emergency services, to be honest.

I watched the neonatal episode last night. Was a little close to home and even more so when I realised the surgeon was the same one who carried out a very similar operation on my son. The last time I saw him I was signing a release form.

There are times I begrudge paying tax, but seeing things like this make me realise how fortunate we are to live in a first world country and its worth every penny in tax we pay.
