AN elderly ex-nurse in Portsmouth has spent a chunk of her life caring for the sick, but now it is her turn to be tended to in Emergency Bikers.

She has fallen and been stranded on the floor for hours, so paramedic Allan knows every second counts to ensure she is on the road to recovery as soon as possible.

Paramedic Robin is concerned about a man with breathing problems and stomach pains. He is suffering from an aortic aneurysm – the ballooning of an artery – which could have fatal consequences.

In Cornwall, fellow emergency worker Sarah tends to a woman slipping into a diabetic coma.
