The factual series Paramedics, where Australia’s dedicated ambulance crews rescue people on their worst days, returns on Wednesday, August 11, at 8.45pm on Channel Nine and 9Now.
Season three brings new faces, more drama and patients, as the show gets an insight into the lives of our emergency service workers.
With more than two million emergency calls made every year in Victoria, one every 12 seconds, the cameras will once again capture the paramedics as they work around the clock.
This season, familiar faces will be returning, alongside new paramedic teams including Steve and Emily, Marley and Tanie, and Michaela and Simon.
In episode one, Natalie and Leonard comfort a schoolboy who has fallen metres out of a tree and landed on his head. Cam fights to save a father in cardiac arrest. Matt and the flight crew race to a fellow paramedic bitten by a deadly brown snake, but reaching her in a remote location proves to be almost impossible. And Mike and Eamon get the call to support a young woman with a debilitating yet all-too-common condition, endometriosis.
Paramedics will once again be narrated by actor and philanthropist Samuel Johnson OAM.
Last season saw Mike and Eamon treat the teenage victims of a brutal assault, and intensive care paramedic Al race to the scene of a motorbike accident, where a tourist’s life hung in the balance after colliding with a fallen tree.
Flight paramedic Ray saw an unlucky gardener with a shocking injury, and facing a helicopter flight that could make his condition worse.
Paramedics is a WTFN production for Channel Nine with the help of Ambulance Victoria.
