Episode 1

Paramedics from the Scottish Ambulance Service respond to 999 calls across the country.

In this episode, the paramedics are called to a dangerous mountain bike crash in the Borders, where they fear their patient has suffered serious internal injuries. The crew must treat her on a remote hillside before working out how to safely transport her back to the ambulance and on to hospital.

In Ayr, a woman celebrating her eightieth birthday has been vomiting for several hours. The symptoms look like sepsis, and the crew need to get her to hospital as quickly as possible.

And in the ambulance control centre, call handler Sarah must deal with a patient who is choking on her porridge.
