About this listen

 Dan Farnworth brings vividly to life his astonishing experiences as a medic working on the frontline of the UK Ambulance Service. When the 999 call goes out, he has little idea what he will find when he gets there.

Having worked in the emergency services for more than fifteen years, Dan has seen it all. In 999, he shares stories that are sometimes sad, occasionally hilarious, often moving, but always inspirational. However, the work also takes its emotional toll. Which was why he set up a mental health campaign that helps those in his profession suffering from PTSD – something that struck him after a truly shocking event. His story will make you see our ambulance service in a completely new way.

Working in the NHS you think you know what every other speciality is going through but this book makes you realise you really don’t and I have even more respect for the ambulance service

Still worth a listen though

Good but not quite great

As a nurse in emergency services in the NHS, I know how tough our work is and particularly for the ambulance crews who see life on the edge. Honest, powerful and highlighting the need for support for service workers. Underpaid, undervalued - If your colleague says “I’m fine” then maybe they are not.
Five star

Superb
