A&E After Dark

Lifting the lid on the night shift as experienced by A&E workers, with exclusive access to Hull Royal Infirmary. The night-time challenges facing NHS staff are captured in their raw form.

In North London security must manage an abusive man as he refuses to leave, despite being discharged and a patient suffering from a heroin overdose is rushed to Rotherham General Hospital’s resus. Coming to his wit’s end with a severe toothache, patient Kieran’s abscess spreads to his airways and Doctor Mehran must decide whether he needs emergency surgery. Plus, security guard Justin suffers a head wound after being attacked when he tried to prevent a theft at his work.
