Omg same 😂

I love it! I live in Florida but my family all lives in England so I know both sides well lol

Laney'sMama so what’s tea time lol

Same haha

I'm pretty sure it's 4:30

I do hope that the current situation helps Americans to look at how things can be done differently. It is no accident that the rest of the industrialized world has managed COVID so much better. Universal medicine has a LOT to do with it, as does the cultural shift towards understanding that the measure of a society is their weakest member, not their strongest. The concept of social capitol is foreign to Americans. The thinking elsewhere is that raising the members of our society are struggling that actually benefits us. Raising up others raises ourselves too. Not to mention that the cost of healthcare is massively higher than everywhere else. It’s worth giving up our freedom to carry a gun to be able to walk down the street safely, and we save money on police and healthcare makes universal healthcare possible. The US spends the same amount of money per capita on healthcare as Canada and the UK do. There are few things that we do worse on, and we sure do WAY better in a situation like a pandemic. Our public health departments are relatively well funded, and have some real power, such as re-allocating funds in a crisis, shutting down schools, parks etc. We figured out a long time ago that cutting health department costs twice as much in healthcare, policing, social services etc. etc. The US has very little community based public healthcare infrastructure, and they have little control. I bet everyone wishes that they has put just a tiny bit more money there, because not having that insurance is turning out to be really, really expensive.

imagine getting debt for life trying not to die

Karen Neill holy cheese that is a long comment 😂

I was thinking about that with the little boy. Three times in one day? For seizures lasting less than five minutes?! You can't do that here unless you're a millionaire!

My sister once rode in the ambulance in America because she passed out on a city bus. She had super low blood sugar and just had given blood. The ride costed her $2000 with insurance. It’s really messed up.

I so agree

It’s like a royalty wave 😂

meanwhile USA ems crews flip each other the middle finger lol

I got a smile out of it! :)

Yes - very royal and uplifting!

🙋‍♂️

I like how they ask for permission to do stuff. I'm sure they're upset that the ambulance there is there anyway and if they just start poking you with needles and pumping this cuff up on your arm it's probly guarantee to stress them out more, so by asking they kind of alleviate that extra stress. I enjoy these episodes also and like the updates at the end. 🙂

Yeah your right

Asking for permission must be legally required surely. First aiders are taught to ask for permission before just diving in.

is it really not like that where you are? I live in Australia and every paramedic experience i've had was similar to this, they'd tell you what they were gonna do before they did it, explained their actions, asked if they could do certain things, let me ride in the ambulance with them and my grandma twice, they have all been lovely to work with

Yes, they were going to tell the hospital she had a dog to be taken care of.❤️

Most of the American stuff is drama and action and it’s anxiety inducing

It funny because I rarely watch American shows

I feel the same way, I can’t get through very many American shows because they make my anxiety so bad.

Another thing that got me is the time they were able to spend to do diagnosis, and the amount of care they'd spend on pain management before trying to get them . I was a volunteer first responder for two years (in the USA), and most of the calls were very clear cut, dire situations, that practically forced us to just get the patients to the hospital as quickly and as comfortably as possible. I think a lot of it comes down to the differences in the way people are billed for healthcare. Here, you call an ambulance, and if your insurance doesn't cover it well, you're looking at a $2k ambulance bill, sometimes even more. So even for things like heart attacks people are willing to have a friend or family member drive them to the hospital instead of having to pay that later.

Night watch is better

Millions of dollars, or at least 100,000

Yes sadly

I’m so glad that I live somewhere where this thought would never cross my mind, I feel very sorry that you have to think about these things!

Abluances are expensive. I got really confused on why they would take it 3 times in one day. That's several thousand for just one trip. Unless it was at a school the ambulance would not have been called and they would just keep the kid at the hospital.

yes, very much, i once passed out of dehydration, was sent to the hospital to rehydrate. Spend an hr or 2 waiting for them to confirm it was dehydration and nothing else, just hooked up to a drip line with a liter of water and exited the hospital with bills of between 1k-3k USD i think,it mightve been more but none the less hiGHly unreasonable. Used to live in canada, and as i still have citizenship there, will probably eventually move back

Did you meet him afterwards?

Did you meet him?

I’m surprised the hospital didn’t keep him after the second time

@Jim Elliott pay for it, ambulance rides are over a thousand dollars here alone, not to mention the thousands of dollars in er bills

Medicaid patients can...and do. Nothing against Medicaid patients, but many don't think twice about calling an ambulance for whatever.

@@embr4065 I'm on medicade I had a severe infection I was sick enough to be hospitalized I had a family member take me to the Dr and my Dr admitted me from the clinic I see many people abuse the system and I'm not one of them don't assume all people on medicade abuse the system most providers are nasty to Medicaid patients so its a situation where I wish I could afford insurance

@@embr4065 smh

Florence is a lucky lady to have patch

Scientifically a dog can help all forms of ailments, not bleeding out obviously, but even cancer can be lessened by a dog, now its because the happier you are the more likely you are to overcome the ailment, but dogs can also sense it early in some cases, making them little guardian angels in most cases, or big, whatever kind of dog you have

If they are in Texas, the better have air conditioning!!!!!!!

The driver was a friend. And KNEW that the scratch could be very serious. That's why he staid. I suffer with lymphedema. Which leads to chronic cellulitis and lymphorrhea. Which has lead me to bed bound for over a year. Lymphedema is Hell on wheels.

that literally broke my heart when she said rhat

I doubt you get to 76 and are innocent.

I always drove because it was faster then waiting for an ambulance

They said the kid has been suffering with seizures for years. If their healthcare system is so great, why isn't the kid on anti-seizure medication so that he won't need an ambulance trip to the hospital in the first place? SMH

@@comfortouch They might have been. We don’t know. Seizures can still happen despite medication. Also, many medications that work the best aren’t approved for young children.

Yep, America sucks anymore for the $$$😮😮😮

I know her knee hurts, but he’ll, we had worst knee scrapes from bicycle wrecks than that as kids here in America…we just limped home…first aid & back out again…lol 😂😂😂

Omg what a sweetheart that dog is just love it,minding his owner,watching every m9ve bless him ❤

I belive it's free in the uk. You don't have to pay.

it’s hecking expensive my dad had to ride one when he injured his pelvis and it’s like $14,000 adding in to hospital bills like surgery and more

It’s not free anywhere. You pay for it in taxes instead

@@FartassVolfgangus well yes but you don't have to pay a large sum of money if you need one. But yes, you are correct.

In america, it depends on insurance. Some will pay for full ride, some for part, some none at all. Also depends on how the specific ambulance company bills - mine bills by level of care - whether or not a paramedic was needed, while some bill on miles driven and supplies used.

They are probably working 6 PM-6AM, so tea time would be 6 PM. When I was in England, tea time was somewhere between 4 PM and 6 PM.

I believe tea time is like after lunch time snack

@@emiliykelley3245 Not necessarily. "Tea" has different meanings for different people. In England, a meal (I do mean a meal like dinner, not like just a cup of tea and a piece of cake) that is eaten at around 4-6pm could be called "tea". Yes, many people eat a meal around this time. This is also very common in Nordic countries.

Tea time is synonymous with supper

It’s around 4:00pm

They were probably right round the corner! Very convenient.

Lmaooo same I was thinking if I were her I would’ve taken full advantage of that gas lmao

That's awful, I'm sorry.

@@lourias Dude, the last time I threw my back out, all I did was get UP from the couch. Sheesh eh?

@@lourias um what? I was just sharing a similar experience of back throw outs involving couches and not vigorous activity like doctors assume. I always felt stupid that that's all it took for my back to go into extreme spasm. I just felt kinship with someone else who it didnt take much to hurt their back. Not sure where the confusion happened.

When I got sick with gallstones and had to have emergency surgery, I took a cab to the hospital. The cabbie didn't know where the hospital was, WTF!! He also charged extra for all the times he had to pull over so I could puke. At least when I got to the hospital the doctor gave me pain meds immediately. I was out for the better part of 4 days

@@rachelmartin3631 i am so sorry they did that to you! I know how horrible gallstones are and the vomiting is uncontrollable so i cant believe he made you pay extra

"Update, The prank caller was tracked down by metropolitan police and arrested. He was later charged with Life endangerment and prank calling" He was charged and sent to jail for 1 year.

Its a ambulance,NOT taxi!

Ching Hung Watch the whole way through and you’ll understand.

Ching Hung the taxi driver stayed and took care of her in till the ambulance arrived, watch the whole clip before saying anything

@@taylorxwx2367 Yeah, you should really pay more attention when watching shows. The taxi driver stayed with her until the ambulance arrived.

Agreed! If everyone behaved like that guy did it would be a better world.

Why please explain am stupid 😂

Jade Wu They drive on the left

They drive on the left and drivers are on the right of the vehicle, it's scaryyy

Yeah America is kind of like with Ems hold still this will only hurt a lot but I think it’s just a cultural thing

I mean at least they're trying to help you, pain is better then death

I mean you have a shitty health care System.in General. I would say that people prefere to go to hospital by car and call the ambulance only if its really bad

When I dislocated my knee 3 weeks ago they didn't give me any pain medicine... Nothing at all... And they said the same exact thing..

That’s a wild generalization-sounds like you may have had a bad experience but let’s not throw the baby out with the bath water.

how you doing today ?

She had a scrap and a bruise...you on the other hand had an actual injury!

She cried due to her being scared of hospitals.

Hey It's Julia I felt for her as well. Ive had multiple dislocations to both knees, torn ACL, torn MCL. Anything knee related makes me so anxious.

@@Monk-eee2 when she said 9/10 for pain scale, then was chatting normally in the ambulance, I thought "I don't think you know what real pain feels like if you can chat during a "9".." 😅

MrT 06 I think they meant free health care here in the US, a quick trip to the hospital without having to pay. Most people drive to the hospital because they don’t want to pay for an ambulance. If we had universal health care it would be much easier and less stressful on patients.

I work in EMS Ik what our ambulances look like, I was referring to the space and the ramp. Everyone on this app takes everything defensively, relax!

Their ambulances are so nice! The ramp! 😮 and I like they’re a bright yellow. It would be a lot easier to see them faster on the road.

@@alexisstephens9352 I agree. We are starting 5o get some ambulances like this in my area but they are usually down in the capital city instead of the smaller towns. The smaller towns get the older box type ambulances

MrT 06 yes but the cost of a bed is astronomical also 1-5k is still an insane amount for a Emergency ride

@@Tyler-zw4kq yeah its more like 1k i believe

It’s 3,000 for one trip

in my area it's 3k-5k and some change without insurance i never call the ambulance unless i have no other choice. but that is also cause I live 1 min driving from the hospital if that it's a 15- 30 min walk i think can't remember. so without insurance it would be 9 -15k in ambulance fees alone. i was in hospital for 3 days in two separate hospitals. one stay was 18k and the other as 31k the one that cost more was worse in terms of everything but medical equipment. i have health insurance from the state and i'm classed as medically frail which gets me an even better state plan. which is actually really good so i didn't have to pay a dime and i have no copays (most of the time and then the most i payed was 8 dollars). but there still is some major holes in it when it comes to dental and vision. but the medical is really good. which is what we should have everywhere in the states it's better than any medical health insurance I've ever had to date. i genuinely wish for them to install better government health care everywhere so we don't have to worry about the cost of the ambulance or the hospital when we need it. because it's a human right to have access to healthcare.

MrT 06 it’s usually goes from 1,500 US dollars to 1,000

Not me, I'm immune to contagious yawns.

Ellie Wat-Han I yawned after reading this comment 😂

I hope you reported them. That’s awful.

The point of an ambulance is lights and sound because if a deaf person was driving they didn’t see the lights they would not stop

@@lilq-tip8547 That's for when an ambulance is rushing urgently and thus not driving within normal rules. I think the other person's comment implies that they were asking the ambulance to not worry about driving in a rush in the first place.

Adventures With Playdonut45 i dont think a deaf person would be driving..

RobloxLiveChannel many deaf people drive

RobloxLiveChannel many deaf people drive actually!

Yeah the Uk doesn't really have a lot of automatic transmissions.

999 is their emergency call. It's different from here. We call 911 for ambulance. They call 999 for theirs

Cassandra Scott 911 is emergency service not ambulance

@@TheNeece1978 911 is the emergency service that connects you with the ambulance, police and fire. There's no specific line to call to get the ambulance directly.

Same cuz I’m Canadian lol

We're all too american for this

You sure don’t get nothing until you see a doctor in er and blood work and pee pee test ex ray ! Then maybe if your lucky you might get something for pain if they feel you need ! USA don’t care about people any more
