many fire departments and paramedic services around the world offer basic first aid training. If you want to do more you can maybe take one of those courses, but otherwise these shows shows can help to show what you need to do. the most important thing if you come across someone that is injured is to not let them move.

As an American...I sadly heavily agree

nar if u work and make 60k that ambo trip to the chopper is like 1400. if u make less $ its free and full ambo cover is 130 year so why worry. 1400 wont kill u. hosp stay is free

@@17hmr243 did you know the average cost of having a baby in the usa is 5000-11000? anywhere else in the developed world thats considered almost criminal lol

Yes, in the United States we have to pay thousands of dollars for a regular ambulance around $1600.00 and an air ambulance can run up to $30,000.00 or higher.

@@shellysmith1256 actually its very expensive here too if you dont have ambulance cover.....the helicopter is free but the ambulance isnt. From my home to my local hospital is 9km.....if I hadnt had cover the bill would have been $960.

I cannot imagine how it is like having to worry about insurance while in a great deal of pain. That must be so awful. I almost feel bad about not needing any insurance in order to survive.

@@josefine7095 Yeah? Read Heather Rowles comment above.

galinda91 yeah the USA sucks lol we need better health care coverage

It’s like really?!?!?! That’s your response????🤦🏽‍♀️🤮. I hate liars!!!!! Especially stupid liars lol 😝 she was definitely in the stupid category for me!!!! Lol🤦🏽‍♀️ “I weigh jewelry🤷🏽‍♀️ “,really with her collection of drug pipes she enjoys weighing jewelry as well lmao 🤣

yeah, the US has our stupid private prisons and wars on drugs thta dont work

I hope you got proper medical care.

Australia has a slack approach to crime majority of the time everyone gets slaps on the wrists basically

SuperSilli come to America to see lol we r stupid here

@@ambercooper7690 Well if you have insurance you wouldn't have to worry about it so obviously it just you that's stupid if you don't have insurance.

Calyx Prophet not all insurance is good and some ppl can’t get health insurance

@@ambercooper7690 Yeah your right my bad people really aren't stupid for not having it but it's the same there as it is here if you don't have it you pay a good chunk of money for your transport but I think they get the helicopter ride free that's expensive here.

Australians don’t have to worry

Brooke Benning ur the first comment im the 2nd

Welcome to the slack laws in Western Australia lol poor coppers can't even chase a stolen motorbike in case the little darlings hurt themselves (crims not coppers)

For stealing a loaf of bread

Cat Smith what happened

So I was riding my bike and when off the deck that was 1.6m

Hello Smiddy jeez

Absolutely lmao

puma lyn you must be joking

This has gotta be Singapore or worse. Gotta admit though, the fear keeps that place very clean and well behaved, so it does work in a way.

Another reason why Australia sucks.🤣

This isn't an Australian show

@@foxxy2583 It is based in Australia according to the info above. Shows Australia on the map.

@@patriciawickholm3617 Real responders isn't an Australian show. Little dot studios, the broadcasters, aren't an Australian company. If you did some research you'd know they're British, not Australian.

It's a British show about British Emergency Responders in Australia.

Annabelle Adams Well, in that case he clearly has not violated his curfew.... But unless there is a clear indication of foul play (like the smell of a decomposing body - no pun intended) someone being in danger (like someone shouting for help), police cannot just barge in to check on people. I definitely wouldn‘t appreciate having police forcing their way in unannounced and without a warrant just to see if I am in - and I am pretty sure many other people feel the same.

Tim Berghoff yeah I never thought of that. Thanks for helping me see that ☺️

In South Africa the State EMs ambulance service is free to unemployed and pensioners.

😳

That's what I was thinking. Wtf man. I ain't no Brit.

I think maybe the show focuses on brits that have moved to Australia?

Heinrich Christiansson they are wearing gloves tho like if ur talking abt the bike guy then they were wearing gloves as they were checking him out

Annabelle Adams Yeah well actually, the ambulances paramedic lifts the patinets shirt without wearing gloves, and they touch surfaces the patient came in contact with without gloves... The way i learned it, thats unsafe behavior

@@heinrichchristiansson1908 Are you calling air ambulance paramedics unprofessional?

Foxxxy No, i do not. I said, that the ambulance seems a little unprofessional to me, as a german paramedic. At around minute 4, tgey touch the patient without any gloves. For me, this is a major no go. On top of that, the stiffneck placement is horrible...

Firstly let's just point out this is an older show (they are still using pelvic sheeting instead of the pelvic binder, they are using the old data terminal, etc) As such, things I say here may not necessarily have been accurate for however far back this was filmed... So, let's break your points down :) "The Ambulance paramedic is not wearing gloves" NSW Ambulance infection control training is that they are not required to wear gloves unless dealing with something which has a risk of bodily fluids exposure or exposure to mucous membranes etc. There are containers of alcohol gel in all the vehicles, and paramedics have access to personal-issue containers of gel and hand hygiene is a focus. (WHO leaflet on glove use: www.who.int/gpsc/5may/Glove_Use_Information_Leaflet.pdf >>> "Gloves should therefore be used during all patient-care activities that may involve exposure to blood and all other body fluid ... during contact precautions and outbreak situations") "There is no pulse oximeter or ecg or automated blood pressure cuff on the patient" In terms of auto BP cuff, NSW ambulance (for the most part) does not have automatic BP functionality on most of their ECG monitors, all BPs are done manually (except single-responder cars and a few select specialist units which have the auto-BP on the monitor). They are apparently/hopefully getting auto-BP when they get around to replacing their monitors. As for Sp02, it is done via a separate unit to the ECG monitors, sometimes just using the tiny finger probes, so it may be a case of just not seeing it? Quickly looking at the first clip, it looks like his right hand is hidden either under the blanket or out of camera shot the whole time. Alternatively, if the patient is stable and you're not concerned about their Sp02 or respiratory, and it's all within ranges, probably able to justify removing it. (personally, I'd probably leave it on) As for the ECG, eh, clinical judgement, probably a good idea to throw a 4-lead on, but I guess it's up to how the individual justifies it. As you probably noted, the helicopter crew threw one on. (Personally, I'd probably do one) "The position of the cervical collar is not correct" Looks a little short at a glance. Yep. "Also the patient likely crashed after a jump, so there is a potential for spinal injury. " That's why he'd be in a collar as a precaution. Although several things you can do to help rule out or reduce the likelihood/suspicion of a spinal injury. Queensland use the NEXUS criteria as an example. "Just the cervical collar is only about 25-30% of immobilazation. So the patient should be head blocked and on a vacuum mattress." NSW ambulance does not have vacuum mats or head blocks. They are issued sandbags to assist w/ immobilisation, and NEIJ jackets for assistance w/ extrication if needed. They are using sandbags to help immobilise his head (check 5:04). As a matter of fact, I believe they are looking at moving to soft collars. Other states either have already or are also looking at moving to soft collars. "Moreover, there seem to be no numbers (like blood pressure, heart rate, quality of pulse etc) during the handover" Most likely just cut out, or provided on a slip of paper.

add the : two dot colon for time stamps like 00:23 or 23:21 u need two zeros for sec only time stamps

Mister Tibbs it’s nothing to joke about..

Here in Western Australia if you don't have private health insurance or cover through St John's Ambulance itself, you pay dearly for an ambulance. Well most people... I had a roll over out bush - about 80km from town and had to get an ambulance after being driven to the nearest mine site (too wet for the flying doc to land). Luckily I had St John's cover, the other passenger didn't. Cost him well over $7,000. That was back in 1998. Now it costs over $1000 just in town (about a 5km ride!)

Lena. It’s called socialism! You literally paying for that every single day even though you may use that service twice in your lifetime. Socialism is corrupt, and costs 1000 times what it’s worth.

@@biggils8894 what a load nonsense, socialism LOL what country are you living in. Read my post I’ve never paid for ambulance and I’ve used it heaps

@@marymary1888 exactly! Like a taxi service lol. While real emergencies have to wait bcse of ppl like you. Socialism, look it up! You are paying for it everytime you literally pay for something. Not to mention all the other taxes. Socialism is an authoritarian government of control tricking you into thinking everything is free and the government loves you. But in reality it’s corrupt elite contractors making billions from your taxes. Costing 1000 times what its worth, and all for a third world result.

@@biggils8894 what country do you live in you muppet

:D

No....she doesnt, she's training new recruits to handle situations they may face in country towns with hospitals staffed by GPs with big egos.....better to learn how to deal with those in simulated situations rather than fail to deal with it when its an emergency and they have to walk in and take control right away.

Obviously you didn't watch her interview prior to that scene.

Its a role play to train the new staff

Only idiots say "yikes"....
