Dumfries and Galloway has a growing problem with drug addiction that has seen the number of drug-related deaths rising to twice the Scottish national average. We meet two paramedics who are tackling the problem on the front line as they are called to a patient who has overdosed and stopped breathing. However, as they arrive at the scene, he is regaining consciousness and refuses all medical help.

There is also tension in Kilmarnock as paramedics rush to help a distressed mother whose baby may have swallowed a drawing pin. By the time they arrive, the baby is no longer choking, but they need to find out where the pin is, and whether it has done any damage. The same crew help a retired nurse back up from a fall and an elderly man who is at home feeling unwell. The paramedics make sure that the man's long-term needs will get assessed so that he can stay at home safely.

In Edinburgh, the SORT team help with a familiar accident as they help rescue a medical student who has broken her ankle while climbing Arthur鈥檚 Seat.
