999 My Life On The Frontline Of The Ambulance Service

Product Description

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
- & how he will cope with the challenges he faces when he gets there. 

Having worked in the emergency services for more than fifteen years, Dan Farnworth has seen it all. There was the time he was called to take away a dead body
- only for the 'corpse' to jolt back into life & demand to know what he was doing in her house. Along with the 18, 000 other paramedics in the UK who serve us day & night, Dan constantly finds himself pushed into extraordinary circumstances where he not only has to deal with those he has been sent to help, but also their worried families & friends.

There is a special camaraderie among paramedics, & 999  Life on the Frontline is packed with stories that are sometimes sad, occasionally hilarious, often moving but always inspirational. However, the work also takes its emotional toll, & Dan won an ITV NHS Heroes Award after setting up the Our Blue Light 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.
