Paramedics respond to calls across Scotland, including a woman who may have had a stroke but is reluctant to go to hospital.

Documentary series following the Scottish Ambulance Service. In
Glasgow, a patient who may have had a stroke is assessed by ambulance crew Steve and John. They run some tests, but when they recommend she go to hospital, she is extremely reluctant. In Edinburgh, specialist paramedic Mat is called to treat a woman with severe pain due to pancreatitis. He does what he can to relieve her agony before arranging hospitalisation. And on the Edinburgh night shift, paramedics Colin and Dan have a call to a possible sepsis case involving a teenager with a swollen foot and a range of unusual symptoms.
