Episode 5
In Birmingham's largest hospital, the Queen Elizabeth, 67-year-old farmer Stephen has arrived with his wife Patricia. Bed 32 in Day Surgery is ready to greet him so he can have much-needed surgery on his leg. Steven hopes an operation will help him walk again, but he is showing symptoms of angina, and surgery won't go ahead unless his heart is strong enough.
The Great North Children's Hospital in Newcastle is one of the biggest paediatric hospitals in the UK. Bed 27 meets it's next young patient, 12-year-old Daniel, who has fallen over at school and may have broken his wrist. He's been brought in by his mum Hilary and is worried that he might need surgery.
It is a busy day at the A&E Department in Newcastle's Royal Victoria Infirmary, and with a four-hour target to get beds turned around, the hospital staff are under pressure. Bed nine is looking after former model agent 78-year-old Liz, who fears she's broken her ribs. Having fallen over at home she's in serious pain and has been brought in with husband of 50 years Max.
Forty-year-old chef Turan is the next patient in bed nine at Newcastle's A&E. He's been assaulted and has head and neck pain but isn't keen to wait around for the treatment.
Over in Resus, bed two is prepped and ready for its next critical patient. An unidentified and unconscious woman has been rushed in by ambulance. She's been drinking and may have a bleed on her brain, meaning her condition could deteriorate rapidly.
