00:00In the heart of Yorkshire, a team like 24 hours a day, seven days a week, serving
00:24their community. I don't think I'm going to look. I'm dreaming of your gin and tonic. Helping
00:34those most in need. They care for to make people's lives better. I just love to look
00:41at me. I love to make a difference. This is Barnsley Casualty 24-7. On shift tonight, Sister
00:53Georgia. Mandy, are you able to go up to Ward with Cube 8, please? Advanced clinical practitioner
01:03Gemma. What's a normal seizure like, Mum? And consultant Dr Laura Buxton. Where am I now?
01:12You're at Barnsley Hospital. You're really in with me. Every casualty.
01:18I'm going to Ward. I'm just wondering are they ready to move? Sister Georgia is starting
01:29her shift and she's arriving to a backlog of patients causing congestion in the department.
01:36Every day on shift you do, like, have problems and you have got to move staff around and help
01:42areas that are struggling. Will you have a look at some of these? Just see if they're ready
01:47to move and we can get ready to move on. I've just asked Emma to sort cubicle four. I do
01:54quite like doing that because obviously we need to make sure that our patients are safe. We've
01:58got 56 patients in with a two-hour doctor wait. Patients up to Ward as fast as we can.
02:08To move the patients around, Georgia needs the hospital porters, but there's a long wait
02:13before they're free. They're on an hour and eight minutes. We want to get them. We've got
02:19two on route and three expected, so we're going to get five ambulances in and we need space.
02:24They've not answered. It's a party. Got a little bit busy at the minute. We're just having
02:31issues with porters, getting patients up to Ward. We just need some...
02:36An ambulance is on its way to casualty. To paediatric care with recurring seizures.
02:49She's had two lots of benzos, have you? Yeah.
02:53Mum Katie and Dad Jack are alongside. He's just like, Mum. Usually it's just... Her eyes
03:00and her head are left off to one side. It might have length here and there, but that's usually
03:05it. But last two is when she's started with the jerk socket. When she's got to us, I've
03:11been asked by our nurse to actually come and have a little look at her because she seems
03:15quite, what we call, flat. So not really responding how she should normally.
03:20I'll put it this way, so we'll pay two minutes. That's the jerk, so she drips off to.
03:26That's what I've just said to Rick, but...
03:33She needed to be in an environment where we're a bit more safe and secure and we could have
03:37a bit more help around, so that's why we transferred her to Reese's.
03:41Thank you. I get you.
03:44You'll be free to run her gas? Yep.
03:51And maintain that oxygen supply to your brain, to all the rest of your organs, and that's risky
03:58in itself.
04:01The risk that she could stop breathing, and that's why we need to get some immediate access,
04:06so we need to get a cannula and get sort of look what the next medication is.
04:11Yeah, especially with seizures, if you're not ventilating or breathing, things like brain damage.
04:28So, yes, Skylar's got to the point now where we need to intubate and take over that breathing for her.
04:42We're being her lungs. We're making sure that that oxygen is supplying all her organs and making sure we're not depriving her of oxygen.
04:49She's been intubated as we speak. She's definitely jerking a lot more than...
04:57What is it? No, so I'll contact on a second.
05:02In her brain more, it could be doing more damage internally, so while she's asleep and intubated,
05:07she's probably in the safest place possible.
05:09So hopefully, like, haves her entire body, so the seizures will stop.
05:14I think that's basically how they described it to us.
05:18She's killed four, ready to move.
05:43Mr. Georgia is juggling patients and beds, while she waits for porters to become available to move people.
05:52Currents are waiting in AMU that beds are ready, but we just haven't got the porters to have to take them up.
05:58And obviously, A&E don't stop, so we've got a constant flow of patients to, like, see anyone anywhere, really.
06:06Whilst Georgia waits for the porters to begin transferring her patients, she's presented with a new task.
06:15So, this COVID and flu swabbing thing, are CBU1 major says no, but CBU2 is saying that we have?
06:25ITU are wanting COVID and whether or not we're doing it or not, really.
06:31The swabs for COVID and flu will add further time pressure to Sister Georgia's day.
06:37It will, because it takes 15 minutes to do the swab, so if we could get it done, it stops the delays, really.
06:45While Sister Georgia deals with delays caused by additional...
06:51In resus, advanced clinical practitioner Gemma is monitoring four-year-old Skylar.
07:00I'm behind you, Gemma.
07:02Got flush.
07:03Got hot.
07:04Aha.
07:05So, she started having a seizure.
07:11We couldn't stop her from seizing, so we had to intubate her,
07:14and that's the way that you try and stop people seizing.
07:17We attempt...
07:23And we can't wake Skylar up, then she would need to be transferred out to another specialist area,
07:29which would be paediatric intensive care.
07:32With her vital signs heading in the right direction,
07:36anaesthetic consultant Rakesh Basroor helps prepare a second attempt to wake Skylar up.
07:44Bread and butter, essentially, that is their speciality when she's being sedated.
07:49They're the ones that know how to manage that airway.
07:52They're more familiar with the type of things we need for the airway
07:55and also the medications that they need to give.
07:58All right, sweetheart.
08:04Hi, love.
08:05Mum is here.
08:07All right, darling.
08:09Got this phone, she'd started fitting last time.
08:12Yeah, yeah.
08:14With her wake-up, but she's had quite a lot of medication to make her sleepy,
08:19so we're not expecting her to sit up and open her eyes.
08:23The important thing we want to know is whether she can maintain her own airway,
08:30so can she breathe by herself?
08:32The last time we tried to wake her up, she started fitting straight away.
08:36Skylar?
08:38Skylar must now be closely monitored to ensure no further seizures occur.
08:43Corrine to casualty, she has a slow heartbeat.
08:59One on the bed, one on the sun.
09:01I can't think of anything.
09:02Can you remember what's happened this morning?
09:05Is she not?
09:06No.
09:07No?
09:08What about when you went to bed last night?
09:09Did you feel okay?
09:10She's supposed to be having a scan at Mexpro Hospital.
09:13Maureen has dementia and a son Matthew has accompanied her to the hospital.
09:18You're welcome.
09:19I got a phone call today from the care home just to state that my mum had low oxygen
09:24and she wasn't very well.
09:26They rang for an ambulance and then the ambulance had brought her in
09:33because her stats are not very well.
09:36How long on the s***?
09:39Where am I now?
09:42Barnsley Hospital.
09:44My mum will be 86 on the 12th of October, so she's really strong for her age 85.
09:51What happened to your dad?
09:53He's looking after you.
09:55Why did he die?
10:00He wasn't very well and he was a bit tired.
10:03When did he die?
10:05A few days ago.
10:07You were there.
10:08Just a few days ago?
10:10Yeah.
10:11You were there.
10:12You held his hand.
10:13You were holding his hand and saying, I love you, George.
10:14George?
10:15Yeah.
10:16Is that my husband?
10:17That's your beautiful husband.
10:18My gorgeous dad.
10:19My hero.
10:21Thursday.
10:22Eh?
10:23Thursday.
10:24Thursday?
10:25Thursday, yeah.
10:26That's not long.
10:27I know.
10:28I know.
10:29My dad really did well looking after her.
10:31They had a few carers coming in, but my dad did the main bulk of it all.
10:35And being at 91, I think it's just stuck its toll a bit.
10:38So he's now at peace and resting.
10:40And he'll be waiting for my mum to come here soon, I think.
10:44What?
10:45Why did he die?
10:47It wasn't very well.
10:48He got an infection.
10:50And it couldn't get right?
10:52It couldn't get right, no.
10:53Sorry.
10:57Sorry.
10:58She's very posh.
10:59Are you very posh?
11:00Very posh.
11:01Oh, well, we'll get on.
11:02Another go at popping that needle in the back of your hand, OK?
11:03OK.
11:04I'll be as gentle as I can, all right?
11:05OK.
11:06Right, you ready, Maureen?
11:07Keep nice and still.
11:08Here we go.
11:09Oh, I don't know how you can look, Mum.
11:11You're very brave.
11:12The priorities are that your mum's pain settled holding steady.
11:13Yep.
11:14So whatever the reason for her heart having gone so very slow this morning, I've got a little
11:19bit of time to work that out.
11:20Yep.
11:21And a bit of time to come up with the right plan for how to sort it.
11:23Yep.
11:24OK.
11:25OK.
11:26So I'm going to put your hand on your hand, OK?
11:27I'll be as gentle as I can, all right?
11:28Right, you ready, Maureen?
11:29Keep nice and still.
11:30Here we go.
11:31Oh, I don't know how you can look, Mum.
11:32You're very brave.
11:33The priorities are that your mum's pain settled holding steady.
11:35Yep.
11:36So whatever the reason for her heart having gone so very slow this morning, I've got a little bit
11:39of time to work that out.
11:40Yep.
11:41OK.
11:42You sort of realise that time's very precious.
11:45I'm up for making my dad proud.
11:47I'm up for making my mum proud.
11:49I just feel so lost at the moment.
11:52She is very slow today.
11:54And I can't let you go home while it's...
11:57No.
11:58You're at Barnsley Hospital in A&E.
12:01Until we've worked out what's going on...
12:04...mains slow, and she will need to be closely monitored in the coming hours.
12:09Love you.
12:10I love you too.
12:11I love you too.
12:12I love you too.
12:13I love you too.
12:14I love you too.
12:15I love you too.
12:16I love you too.
12:17I love you too.
12:18I love you too.
12:19I love you too.
12:20I love you too.
12:21I love you too.
12:22I love you too.
12:23I love you too.
12:24I love you too.
12:25I love you too.
12:27I love you too.
12:28Georgia has patients ready to go to wards,
12:31but the hospital's porters aren't free to move them,
12:33causing a backlog.
12:35Rina, you know your patients that are currently,
12:38they've come and picked it up,
12:39and I believe they're still in with a patient now.
12:47So I haven't looked in it,
12:48I don't know what's in that night's death,
12:50that there's cocaine in there.
12:52I don't know how much.
12:53So I don't know what the outcome will be,
12:58but it's been reported anywhere.
13:02Whilst Georgia helps the police...
13:10..in minor injuries, 65-year-old Sean has...
13:14I've gone down for...
13:16..but carriers down there, there's some down there.
13:20As I've gotten here at the bottom, about three, front bottom,
13:23some of the big concrete steps as well, I've slipped.
13:26And my foot's gone under...
13:28..my foot's gone underneath me.
13:32Right, my love, tell me what's happened.
13:34It's gone underneath there.
13:35What were you on? Your feet?
13:37What did you have on your feet? These.
13:39These silly slippers?
13:40Ah.
13:41All right.
13:42Did they stay on?
13:44Er...
13:45..that one did, that one didn't.
13:46That one came off, OK.
13:47And you've injured your toenail as well?
13:49Yeah.
13:50Lots of patients come in from having injuries based on poor footwear.
13:54Er...
13:55Slippers is one of the bane of the life of the practitioner
13:59because, yeah, they slip it and they slip on and off
14:02and they're not supportive,
14:04so people can go and do something really innocuous
14:07and then fall and obviously injure themselves.
14:10Can you stand on it after you've done it?
14:12To be honest, I've not tried. OK.
14:15I don't feel like trying, but I will if you want me to.
14:17No, it's all right.
14:18I just wanted to know if you had any pain.
14:20No.
14:21OK, so is it sorry?
14:22Yeah. Right, then let's...
14:26Whilst waiting for his X-ray,
14:28Sean has a moment to speak to his grandchildren.
14:33Hello, sweetheart.
14:35Are you going to tell grandad to get all better?
14:37Yeah. Yeah.
14:38Yeah.
14:39Has he got a big cluster on it?
14:40Yeah, well...
14:41..and he has some magic cream.
14:43Yeah.
14:44It's lifted, it's straight into X-ray
14:48to find out what damage Sean has done to his foot.
14:53And relax.
14:56..to casualty with a slow heart rate.
14:59She also has dementia.
15:04What happened? What happened to you, Deb?
15:07He went to sleep. He was not very well.
15:09He went very well.
15:11His hand.
15:12Really?
15:13Where?
15:14At the care home.
15:15I'm learning that.
15:17Oh, he went to sleep.
15:18He went to sleep.
15:21I didn't think about that.
15:22You were there, sweetie.
15:23You probably forgot.
15:26There's nothing...
15:26Listen, there's nothing to be upset about, is there?
15:29He's not...
15:30Listen, he's not hurting.
15:31He's watching over you.
15:35Did he really?
15:36Yeah.
15:38It's a strange disease,
15:39because she's really, really good at remembering old times from long.
15:44And some, like, she knows my dad's passed away,
15:47but then she forgets sometimes and where is he?
15:50And it's having the death over and over and over and over again every single day.
15:57Love you.
15:57I'm so dope.
16:02I'm proud.
16:02And you've got Vicky, Josh, Georgia and old grandkids coming over.
16:07And you've got those other people at care home looking after you.
16:10And my dad.
16:11More importantly, my dad's looking after you.
16:16They've been married and they're all school married,
16:18so for better or for worse, death goes apart.
16:22With Maureen's heart rate remaining lower than doctors would like...
16:26Who's got a quick picture of your chest to do today?
16:28Pardon?
16:29She's going to take an x-ray.
16:31I promised my dad I would look after my mum and she wouldn't suffer,
16:35so that's what I'm doing now.
16:36Everything is just a flood of them up.
16:40You're all right and then you feel a bit numb.
16:45Maureen and Matthew must now wait for the results of...
16:56Having begun to clear a backlog of patients with the help of the hospital porters,
17:01Sister George is now helping someone who's having a mental health crisis.
17:05Yeah.
17:06The patient was found in possession of a large amount of drugs
17:09and the police have been called.
17:14The patient is currently being taken care of.
17:16I let my neck quite poorly bless him,
17:20so I've been sat with him while waiting for his specialty team to come and see him.
17:26So he's now gone to...
17:29took a bit of resources from staff and hopefully he'll be better in a few days.
17:36In recess, four-year-old Skylar is being woken up by nurse Liv having been intubated to prevent seizures.
17:51All right. Hello.
17:57Hey, Mummy's here.
18:00Hey, Mummy's here.
18:01Are you going to wake up? I do wake her up.
18:03It's in.
18:11So everything she's doing by herself now, so it's just waiting for her to wake up a little bit
18:15and then we can monitor her further and hopefully get her to the ward.
18:18Thankfully, this has worked.
18:22She's stopped seizing. She's actually starting to breathe on her own.
18:26So now it's just a case that we need to keep her close.
18:29Quite a lot of medication that's going to make her sleepy.
18:32So I wouldn't expect her to... She might be out fast asleep at rest at night.
18:38The main thing is, as long as she's breathing on her own and maintaining her airway and not having a seizure.
18:44You're waking up.
18:47Look at you waking up.
18:49After a groggy start, the seizures have stopped.
18:52We're definitely waking up a lot more now, aren't we?
18:55I know, darling.
18:58Is that annoying you?
19:00Shall we take it out soon?
19:01We'll take it out.
19:03Yeah.
19:04Are we messing?
19:05What? Are you setting up?
19:08Where's Mummy?
19:10You see where she is?
19:13Kid and adults, but they also can deteriorate quite quickly as well, which is quite why you need to keep an eye
19:20eye on them, and that's the risk we have with children.
19:26The following day, she went home with Mum and Dad.
19:38So when did you do this today?
19:40Yeah, yeah, this morning, yeah.
19:41In minor injuries, 65-year-old Sean is awaiting the results of an x-ray
19:46after a fall down his cellar steps left him with a suspected broken tongue.
19:51From yesterday.
19:53Is that for the cellar?
19:54No.
19:55Oh.
19:55That's for the back bedroom for grandkids.
19:59Oh, right.
20:00We're doing it to, you know.
20:03For them when they come to see.
20:04For them when they come, yeah.
20:06Wallpapering, painting, carpet.
20:10But for now, Sean's dealing with the damage then, shall we?
20:13A little break in the big toe.
20:20Just there on the joint.
20:21And looking at your big toe, you've got bruising underneath, which is in combination with that,
20:27where it's broke, that it's not an injury to that area.
20:31This is something that we need to refer to to assess the patient.
20:34Take a further detailed history.
20:35More in depth, whether that actually I've got that in.
20:38There's fractures across that mid-foot, that Liz Frank joint, which is quite significant for your
20:43mobility of your foot and your arch of your foot.
20:46So we need to be sure about that.
20:50Some weight-bearing x-rays and then they'll potentially plan for him to have a scan.
20:55So he'll probably go home in a black walker boot and come back for a scan another day.
21:00I'm not too, hopefully it's just nothing that's going to affect me.
21:07Right, I've spoken to orthopaedics and they've said that they'll see you on that area called Estec.
21:12Okay.
21:13So I'll take you down there, they're waiting for you, okay?
21:15Okay.
21:15All right, have a look.
21:19Definitely no decorating for the foreseeable and no more sleepy slippers on the cell estate.
21:26A further scan revealed no additional damage, leaving Sean free to carry on sorting out his cellar.
21:32Having spent her day organising patient movements, Sister Georgia is catching up with Nurse Olivia,
21:45who's also having difficulty with patients on the move.
21:48Cubicle 16?
21:49Yeah.
21:50Basically, he's got some medicine, he's supposed to be going to the ward, I've done them.
21:54I've got to his cubicle and he's not there.
21:56Yeah, voicemail.
21:57So when somebody goes missing, hopefully they answer the phone and they say,
22:04actually, yeah, I'm at home, I'm safe, I'm fine.
22:07But if not, sometimes we have to send police or ambulance out to do a welfare check.
22:14Yeah, we're going to have to...
22:15So just ring the ambulance and tell him that he's gone?
22:18Yeah, with a cannula ring.
22:19Right.
22:20With a patient missing in cubicle 16, there's a new arrival in cubicle 19.
22:2885-year-old Eric has a badly swollen leg.
22:34Last night, I said to my wife, I don't feel so well.
22:37And anyhow, I managed to get upstairs about half past 12,
22:42but I couldn't get police and up bed.
22:47What are you in here today?
22:48It's a lymphedema.
22:51Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
22:52Yeah, but I've had sepsis at all.
22:54You've had sepsis before?
22:56Yeah.
22:56So, I'm going to pop a needle in your arm and text somebody, is that okay with you?
23:00Do what they want.
23:01Yeah.
23:02Whilst there, he was previously a singer.
23:05I hear you used to be your next singer.
23:06Aye, for a long time.
23:08How long ago?
23:10How did you enjoy it?
23:11Oh, it really isn't.
23:13So, where did you sing then?
23:14Did you sing all of it, Will?
23:15All of it.
23:16All of it.
23:17I've been in Tenerife, Benidorm, Portugal, I shouldn't be.
23:22Wow.
23:24But I've done all clubs in Barnsley, Shepard, Doncaster, Wigan.
23:28Antibiotics?
23:32You can relax your arm now.
23:33You've done well, have you?
23:40I can't wait.
23:42Sister Georgia and nurse Olivia are trying to locate a missing patient.
23:47Check.
23:48Obviously just check it waiting.
23:52Darren, we've got a patient that's left with a cannula in, but he's got no fixed aboard.
23:58So...
23:59Can't hear anything.
24:00Right, I'll just document it then, and I'll document it about.
24:02Because can't he tell the police to go searching?
24:04And we've tried phoning him, so...
24:10In cubicle 16, 68-year-old Janet has been struggling.
24:14Georgia is looking after her.
24:21Get all that sorted for you, OK?
24:23So this lady attended two days ago, we have do her pain and vomiting.
24:27She was diagnosed with a boot poisoning or stomach bug,
24:31and she was given anti-sickness to take home, but it's not stopped her sickness at all.
24:37But the concern that this lady had was that she's on chemo medication for her cancer,
24:43and she's not able to keep them down either.
24:45I just can't keep anything down, but that's bad,
24:48because you can't keep your medication now, which I need to take.
24:53That's what concerns as much as anything, isn't it?
24:58I got married day after my 21st birthday.
25:02We met when we were 18.
25:04You were 18, I was 20.
25:06Nurse Ivana brings medication for Janet.
25:09Right, I've got your anti-sickness and some paracetamol.
25:14So, I've got some undansac, how much is your anti-sickness?
25:18OK.
25:19And then some paracetamol.
25:23It will always roll sweet.
25:27Hopefully, stop her being sick.
25:31Which is what you want, isn't it, at the minute last year?
25:35Are you managing to keep your water down?
25:39Janet must now hope that the anti-sickness strip enables her to take her vital cancer medication.
25:45So, if you need...
25:52Sister Georgia has been juggling beds, patients and porters throughout us.
25:57There are ambulances that are going to be coming in as well, so we need to free up some space.
26:01So, just escalated it to site to try and get us some more support with porters.
26:05And then, hopefully, we'll be able to get some patients out at department and clear a bit of space.
26:10The availability of porters is improving, just at the right time for Georgia.
26:16A shirt a bit stretched that sent me around me or something.
26:19Oh, that was fast.
26:20A cubic plate.
26:21That was fast, thank you.
26:22Somebody...
26:23Mandy, are you able to go up to ward with cube eight, please?
26:32Apartment, and it's really difficult sometimes.
26:35I ain't got anybody to send with you at minute, that's the only issue.
26:38If we're down on porters, it can make your shift really difficult,
26:43because you've got patients that are needing transferring to wards or for CTs or x-rays,
26:49and if there's a delay in that, it impacts everything massively.
26:52Can you...
26:5819, 85 to Lauren.
27:00The good people, hospital, they were brilliant with me, everybody.
27:07Eric wants to go home as soon as possible.
27:09Er, pigeons, canaries, and greyhounds.
27:14I like to look after and write.
27:16Advanced clinical practitioner Charlene has reviewed the results of Eric's blood tests and has concerns.
27:23So, his inflammatory markers are raised, so that would indicate that he has got some infection going off,
27:27and it's likely cellulitis.
27:28Leonard?
27:30Hi.
27:30Are you all right?
27:31I don't know.
27:32For Eric.
27:35We need to admit, yeah, there are people to stay when they want to go home,
27:39but he's not well enough to be at home, he needs to be in hospital.
27:42He'll be settled on a bed soon.
27:44All right, you take care.
27:45See you later.
27:46Bye-bye.
27:50Further tests confirmed Eric was suffering from cellulitis and lymphedema.
27:55He was discharged from hospital four days later.
28:03Back in cubicle 16, 68-year-old Janet has ongoing sickness,
28:08which is affecting her ability to take cancer medication.
28:11Dr. Hannah Everett has now taken over her care.
28:15Obviously, with the fact that you're on quite a few medications,
28:18that we need you to be able to take, and the length of time that it's been going on for,
28:24I think we might need to bring you into hospital to give you some fluids through the vein,
28:27and then also give you some...
28:29Dr. Everett needs to perform a blood test on Janet.
28:33You've had it on the feet and everything.
28:34Yeah.
28:35Not good news for me, that, is it?
28:37No.
28:38Not really.
28:39No.
28:40All right, that's the same reason.
28:45We're in luck.
28:46Tells you to be buzzed, eh?
28:51This thing.
28:52Any questions or anything else?
28:53No.
28:54No, I don't think so.
28:56Dr. Everett needs to discuss with a consultant
28:59whether Janet should stay in overnight for observation.
29:05But she said, yeah, she's not been able to keep her antiemetics down,
29:07so she's just continuing to vomit.
29:09Yeah.
29:09What's your plan?
29:11I've had a chat with the consultant, and he agrees with me that we need to bring you in
29:15for some fluids and some for anti-sickness.
29:17She'll be able to get some meds down me then.
29:19Yeah.
29:20Janet's feeling better already, and thinking about what Brian can make her
29:24when she's ready to leave hospital.
29:26Yeah.
29:28What he calls?
29:29Yeah.
29:30Yeah.
29:31No, I think she'll be fine.
29:32A bit of fluids, a bit of anti-sickness.
29:35She should start feeling a bit better, yeah.
29:39Janet was taken to the ward and was discharged four days later.
29:43That's nice.
29:51That's nice.
29:52Back in Reesos, Maureen has been waiting with her some Matthew
29:57for the results of a chest X-ray.
29:59So what I'm seeing on here is that her heart, this is the outline of her heart,
30:03it's much bigger than it should be,
30:05and that her heart muscle doesn't pump as good as well as it should.
30:08It's a bit like in your boiler.
30:12Your boiler in your house is like your heart,
30:14and the radiators are like your lungs.
30:16Then the pressure in the radiators backs up,
30:20so you need the heart to be pumping the blood effectively around the body
30:23and also clearing fluid out of the lungs.
30:25I'm reasonably happy things are settling down.
30:29Okay?
30:30Why were I in trouble?
30:33A little bit this morning.
30:35Why?
30:35Your heart was going a bit too slow.
30:38Was it?
30:39Yeah.
30:40Ooh!
30:44You all right?
30:47You look better.
30:49Want a little drink?
30:50You look a lot better.
30:53So you won't be going home to Dave.
30:56They might keep you in a couple of days.
30:59What?
30:59Why are they picked on me?
31:01Because you're beautiful.
31:05Oh, that's nice.
31:08Oh, I know.
31:10I know, everybody thinks that.
31:12All right, Irene, are we ready to go?
31:14We're going.
31:15To what?
31:16All right.
31:17You're going upstairs now to be looked after again.
31:19Thank you, everybody.
31:20Why did you pick me?
31:22I'm going to carry on where my dad left off.
31:25My dad did it with every ounce of his body and his strength,
31:29and finally that got the better of him.
31:32So I'm going to take over and hopefully make my dad proud
31:35and make my mum proud as well.
31:37Maureen's heart was monitored on the cardiology ward for four days.
31:42She left the hospital on reduced medication and is now stable.
31:49Unstop day shift is coming to a close.
31:57So we are still busy.
31:58We've got patients awaiting ward.
32:02Portering's got better.
32:04We haven't got as many waiting to get up now.
32:06So hopefully we can just keep on top of it, ready for the night's coming on.
32:11It's being relaxed before it all starts again.
32:14I feel like some days you do have to kind of switch off because
32:18if you took things home that you see in the emergency department,
32:21you'd sometimes be really upset.
32:23You see, like, challenging behaviours and things like that.
32:28I am quite a chill person anyway, to be fair, but, um, yeah,
32:32you can't take it home, will you?
32:33So I'll be back tomorrow to do it all again.
32:37Well done.
