It is here that lives are saved or lost, and the big decisions, the right decisions have to be made…fast.They specialise in the evacuation of disaster areas, no matter how remote, and regions where a chopper is the only means of rescue. They’re also in the city streets and the suburbs; they have to deal with the patients, their families and loved ones; the police and the Emergency Services.
This dedicated medical team, the Adrenalin Junkies, live in the demanding yet fragile world of emergency medicine…everyday of the year. It’s unpredictable, it’s exciting and to survive, you have to be brilliant, make snap decisions in high stress situations and try not to burn out. This hard-hitting series delves into their work, and also into their private lives…their reality. Emergency:- a sudden state of danger. The adrenalin hit of not knowing what’s going to happen next. It is under this extreme pressure that the “junkies” thrive, and defying the odds brings them the greatest satisfaction. Ride with them, work with them, live with them. It’s not a job, it’s an addiction. |
