I agree. Especially when one is aware of the surroundings. Everything matters in order to calm down the victim as much as possible, including preserving her dignity.

that means alot to the patient , pure privacy in the street after an accident , to many idiots with mobile cams wants to film , disgusting , no respect for the victim .

That’s the thing, the nhs are absolutely phenomenal in emergency situations like this. It’s the long term care of people with chronic health conditions where it lets so many people down. I can never fault the paramedics, they’re always fantastic - from the experiences I’ve had with them for myself & my loved ones, any way. So glad she’s on the road to recovery. Must’ve been terribly frightening for her x

Which all comes down to funding (which then informs NHS culture).

Very good work by the paramedics and firefighters, bravo! Greetings from a bavarian comrade.

This is one of my greatest fears, not because of the injuries themselves, but because of the high potential for financial ruin. I am American, if you couldn't tell.

Wonderful to see Brits receiving world class emergency care. In the world of paramedicine Australia and Great Britain are constantly sharing ideas. Most Australian state ambulance services have their own fleet of helicopters, and also use fixed wing aircraft for destinations beyond the range of helicopters. Given Britain's compact size, a couple of NHS choppers wouldn't go astray.

The Scottish Ambulance Service have two helicopters and two fixed wing planes. There are also two helicopters that are operated by a charity

Absolutely brilliant - the services do an amazing job - pay them now Rishi - they’re second to none - I’m sooo cross !!!

My fiance was pinned inside his crushed car, upside down. He called me from inside the vehicle while they were trying to get him out. He was ok. I was pinned by my own stupidity when the big Sprinter van I drove for work slipped out of gear after I parked it at 4am and rolled into me as I was walking in front of it towards my coworkers house on the opposite side of the street to drop the keys in her mailbox. It pinned me against the vehicle parked in front of it. The street had an incline and that's why it rolled forward and into me. My cellphone was in my back pocket and I couldn't reach it. Nobody was on the street at that hour. I was really crushed and pinned tightly. I felt like I was going to go into shock. All I can remember after that was getting determined to free myself. I don't know how I pushed that big van back uphill but I did, and I wiggled out and temporarily lost consciousness when my blood flow was adjusting. I have very low blood pressure. I weighed about 110 lbs at the time. I was black and blue and deep purple for weeks on the lower half of my body.

@@resnonverba137 lol, I drove for years but now I live in another country and take taxis because I left my car in the islands. I have a perfect driving record. I was tired after driving nonstop for 12 hours. It happens. I never hit anything other than a trashcan when I was 16 and also a frog in the rain. Never caused an accident, either.

I wonder why it took so long to cut her out. Here in the states we have what’s called “golden hour” the goal is to get the PT into Surgery/definitive care within an hour after the incident

UK medic here, golden hour is only really applied to CAT1 patients where injurys are immediately life threatening and they are in a deteriated state. As she was alert and able to comunicate that's not a worry so the fire crew take their time chooping her out so it causes the least pain and disconfort posible.

@@Krmic1 - I think it is probably also the same for you guys in that the patient's spinal column/alignment needs to be maintained and so to take out the patient safely, if there is concern regarding a spinal fracture, is to take the roof off. As somebosy has already mentioned, the car is already beyond repair and removing the roof is also fairly quick.
