01:09I want to dig a little deeper, to think a little bit more and to feel a little bit more
01:13about what's going on.
01:15And host of Gardening Australia, Costa Georgiatis.
01:19As far as the public health system, I got a lot of connection, positive and negative.
01:24Dad had a major cardiac arrest.
01:28To walk into the hospital with him and to walk out without him, you don't forget that.
01:33They will leave behind their day jobs and spend a week alongside the frontline workers at one of Australia's busiest
01:40hospitals, St. Vincent's in Sydney.
01:44I'm sweating a bit. My heart rates up.
01:46It's the first time I've seen anything like this.
01:49I'm a little bit nervous.
01:51I have been in an operating theatre exactly zero times.
01:56This is a serious, serious situation.
02:00Life is in this whole team's hands.
02:02You walk into a world thinking you half know about some things.
02:06And then you walk out going, I knew nothing.
02:09They will experience firsthand the extraordinary challenges staff face right across the medical front line.
02:15From the pressures of emergency medicine.
02:18Oxygen two load of rain.
02:19Lucky there was a bed available immediately.
02:21He might have passed.
02:23To the emotional toll of treating cancer.
02:25This gives me a chance at a cure.
02:28I'm annoyed at myself because I got emotional.
02:31I've worked so hard not to do this.
02:34And the complexity of life-saving operations.
02:37It's really given me an insight into how fragile health and life is.
02:43It's extraordinary. It's really extraordinary.
02:45To have witnessed something like that.
02:47With an ageing population.
02:49Chronic disease on the increase in costs snowballing.
02:53What will it take to ensure our public health system is fit to take on the challenges of the future?
02:58If it wasn't for the people, the front line workers in this hospital.
03:01If it wasn't for them, then I think the system would collapse.
