Nightwatch: EMT Gives "Wake Up Call" To Patient Who Almost Lost His Life | A&E

Wow, that’s amazing

Wish my dad's several overdoses gave him a wake up call. Now he's 55, still addicted, and has various other health issues. Ah well, I'm always happy and hopeful for other people to change their lives for the better. If this man bettered himself, good for him ❤

“I aint new to this, im true to this” God Bless That King.

They have hit me with that stuff about 9/10 times in my life. Struggled with opiates since high school. Started with pills then went to needles… I am 33 now and just celebrated 3 years clean from everything.

The police couldnt give him narcan?

there are so many things wrong woth their treatment but hey hes alive 🤷‍♀️

That mufucka aint have a CLUE what u was saying lmfao

There really isn’t any point in asking what specific drug the Pt took. It will in no way affect our method of treatment and is instead asking questions that will not change anything. It is obviously an opiate if narcan worked. No need to ask further questions. At least that’s what I’ve always been taught, not judging this medic

I really lov this paramedics they doing a great job.

Amen ❤Praise God🙏🏼✝️🕊

as person who is not english country , i appreciate english subtitles thank you!

sadly this is all too real for me, my roommates son overdosed this evening, narcan didn't work, he was 'celebrating 'his 20th bday..let's get these drugs off the streets, and help the ppl that need it, society needs to stop judging and ignoring the problem!

I don't feel sorry for junkies!!!

If they're overdosing on an illegal substance I don't think we should spend tax money on that. It's far from a public good to keep them on the streets.

Took entirely too long to get narcan on board

Narcan is amazing! what a miracle drug !

Never been more embarrassed watching minimally trained EMT level FF panic and run on a simple OD call. They should ALL be wearing vomit for that screwed up call........

Drug addicts are given narcan and trained to give it here in uk.

Drug OD? Reminds me of George Floyd
(The druggie criminal)

him been sick was him clucking the narcan through a vein can take 1 or 2 seconds 2 work

I’m two years clean and this video it broke my heart. I hope everywhere that man is today, I hope he found help.

The use of narcan in drug overdoses is a huge game changer.

Why dont the police officers have this on hand? Seems easy enough to administer. The EMTs can take over when they get there.

Doesn’t pd carry narcan?

Love watching these videos! Keep it up

I'm a paramedic and a big fan of "load, go and tread" but this was just wrong... There was enough space upstairs for some basic airway/breathing management and give some narcan...
So instead they chose to wait longer for the prober treatment and be all not seatbelted during a "dangerous" code 3 ride? Sorry no understanding for that...

In Jesus Mighty Name

Well done guys. Respect!!!🙏

My husband lost his 35yr old son to a overdose 2yrs ago. My husband has days when it overwhelms him. Drugs are so dangerous you never know what exactly you are buying off of the street.

I just had my first ride time with the fire department for school best experience since COVID for sure

Old but definitely not wise.

I called 911 on a guy who overdosed and was laid out on his back in below freezing weather 2 weeks ago and I wonder everyday if he made it.

I cried watching this. I’m 3 months sober now after a relapse and have been in this mans shoes. Im SO grateful. Ask for help, there is hope on the other side, I promise. You may just have a whole spiritual awakening. Fantastic job. God bless the first responders that saved me.

Ugh, puking all over himself. Props to the paramedics for dealing with such reactions.

Guess these fools never realize they can just have brain damage or be a vegetable rest of their life

So glad they saved older Bruce Willis

What a great job you guy's have done.....hope this person realised how lucky he is to be still alive.

Everyone should carry narcan

In quebec many pharmacies refuse to carry narcan and my pharmacy chose to have it and they put a poster that says how narcan can save lives so they should have it everywhere !

What what a wonderful and caring EMT God bless you sir

I hope this guy learned from what he's done because remember he's responsible for his own life that is his decision to live the way he does hopefully this is a wake-up call to change his life if not you're going to pay for it with his life..

bruce willis

Would you let Darwin do his work..... Geez.

If people want to off themselves.... It's America.. You are free to do so.

I love this channel

That man is lucky indeed.

Man how much balcony do you need to eat to overdose?

That would scare me! Great job to the paramedics 💯.

This pandemic is causing to much trama for everyone. To much nothing being done by government.

He is lucky to be alive..Great job from the rescuers!
