Filmed in 2019, in this episode, staff care for the frailer members of our ageing society.

Filmed in the summer of 2019 before coronavirus struck, the series follows the staff on the Intensive Care Unit at the Royal Gwent Hospital in Newport, south Wales.

On this ward, life hangs in the balance. Our society is ageing and the staff on the ICU treat a high number of elderly patients, but the older and more frail a person is, the harder it is to overcome a critical illness.
