Paramedics Breakdown After Horrific Road Accident | Ambulance

This accident was the result of someone driving at 100mph in a 40mph zone. This happened around Christmas-time. The young girl who is crying was only 21 when she responded to this scene. We owe our emergency service staff so much for all that they do

When she calls her Mum and she's crying, explaining what's happened and says, 'I'm sorry for waking you up.' and you just know her Mum doesn't care about that and is glad her daughter called her..

'Are you ok?' .. 'No.' - Real. These heroes are human. You deserve more than claps.

These people should make more money than professional athletes and no one will ever convince me otherwise.

Having one patient die is bad enough, but having 5 of them die despite the fact you try as hard as you can to save them, is just horrific.

I love how the dispatchers made sure they were okay and insisted they take some downtime, awesome support.

My daughter and son in law are both paramedics and have seen some gruesome things..... My son in law had a breakdown after one very bad job. He tried to go back to the job but couldn't do it, it ended his paramedic career..... These people, paramedics, fire and police deserve our respect and thanks ❤❤

I cried when the lady called her mum :( that feeling of just wanting your mum's comfort is a feeling like no other... All paramedics are doing an incredible job!

"I just want my mum." A true show of how car accident scenes can mess you up. That was so heart breaking.

"I just want me mum" no matter how old you are there will always be times when a loving guardian is needed. It's actually heart warming to see the 911 operators and 1st responders break down with emotion (and be given the space to do so). Usually first responders are quite cold because they can't allow there feelings to get in the way of there job.

sorry for my bad English . I am a firefighter myself from Germany. Experienced such situations very often. It is often very difficult to forget such pictures. Luckily you have friends, colleagues and family. I wish every firefighter, policeman or paramedic only the best. Without you, the world would not be safe. Always come home safe. Best wishes

To all first responders out there.. Thank you for doing the job most people can't... You guys are the real heroes..

Dang, this hits deep. People always ask me things like "what's the worst thing you've seen" or "how many car crashes have you been to"; they always want to know the adrenal-pumping stories. The next thing they ask is "how do you do it"? Truth is the dead have never really bothered me, even the ones we lose. It's the family and friends...the screams from a mother losing her child, a son begging his father to wake up, a desperate husband asking us why we're stopping efforts. You never forget the moment you see their hope leave their eyes.

As a paramedic in America I can not describe how happy it makes me to see emergency service workers in other parts of the world have a support system that places emphasis on their mental health. One of the hardest of this job is going on that traumatic call and having to quickly reset and go on the next one before you’ve fully processed it. Good on the NHS for caring for their paramedics

Over 100 emergency personnel at the scene? I have never even HEARD of any crash scene here in America that had that many personnel on duty, let alone responding to a single crash scene! And thank God for all the debriefing that those responders go through so that they can process what they have just dealt with before heading out to the next call! God Bless All of them for their unwavering help!

One thing that really strikes me watching this is how deeply and genuinely everyone working that night cared. Whether at the scene or at the communications centre nobody saw it as just a job. They cared for the victims as one human to another. What a great impression this gives of England.

The public doesn’t give paramedics, fire crews and police enough credit for what jobs they do and what they have to go through in their jobs! Thank you guys and gals for all your services!

Mad respect to ALL first responders. Many people do not know, care or appreciate what they do.

As someone who lost their 18 year old sibling in a horrific car accident, I can’t thank the first responders enough for all they do. I know so many of you bring your work home with you and live with that trauma on a daily basis. Please know what you mean to those of us who have loved ones lost or ones who barely made it. You are beautiful souls.

"Are you guys alright?" - "No." This exchange crushed me, because it was honest, and in most professions in the US, people would probably just say, "yeah," and move on because any other answer feels wrong to say out loud.
