999: On The Front Line: Season 9 Episode 8 airs Sunday 7 May 2023 on More4.
Paramedics from the West Midlands Ambulance Service are followed throughout a typical 12-hour shift in the new series. As the pandemic and long hospital wait times continue to take a toll in the spring of 2022, the series takes place at a time when the ambulance service is busier than ever. These paramedics are prepared for anything the West Midlands can throw at them, as they respond to over 4,000 calls every day.
In this episode, paramedics are called to help a man who is in so much pain from his chest pain that he can barely speak. A woman who suffers from liver disease tripped and cut her ear. She needs to go to the hospital because of her low blood pressure and high blood sugar. Another sufferer reports pain from even using the loo. The paramedics are worried that he has gotten an infection because he only has one kidney.
A heart patient is having trouble breathing, and an 11-year-old boy playing on his bike has fallen and hit his face. His front teeth appear to be broken, and he may have injured his wrist as well.
