Inside the Ambulance

Paramedics collect a seriously injured man airlifted in from Wales, deal with a distressed pensioner who has taken a tumble, and treat a toddler struggling to breathe.

The Stoke crews cope with a major heart attack and a nasty football injury, while in Dudley, the paramedics help an elderly diabetic man with severe stomach pains.

The paramedic crews treat a drug user with a burst abscess, an elderly woman whose face has swollen, and a distraught young woman who may be suffering a miscarriage.

Paramedics attend an accident at a bus station, and treat a feisty pensioner who has angina, a young mum with a suspected stroke, and a child hit by a cricket bat.

In Dudley, paramedics attend a road accident, while in Stoke, the crews work out how to move a woman with a bad fracture, and answer a call from a woman whose carer has fainted.

The paramedic crews are called to an unconscious child in a park, a seriously unwell man with blood in his colostomy bag, and a deaf woman with chest pains.

The crews reassure a frightened elderly patient with a dislocated hip, treat a baby with a dangerously high temperature, attend a woman with a fast heart rate and help an alcoholic.

The blue lights are flashing as the crews attend a woman with dangerously high blood pressure, a 20-year-old with chest pains, and a woman who has smashed her face in a fall.

The paramedics treat a woman whose legs have dramatically swollen, a girl having panic attacks, and a very ill and unconscious man.

The crews attend an HGV driver suffering dizzy spells and a woman who has fallen into a bush. They also move a man with a spinal injury who has no sensation from the neck down.
