From Call to Rescue. Ambulance: Through the Eyes of Those Who Are First to Help
GLEB SHAMBOVSKY opens the door to a world where every second matters, and each call is a test of professionalism and humanity. “The ambulance is like sitting mountaineers. Twenty-four hours in a car, where the air is thick with stress...
and sweat. We carry defibrillators to the tenth floors where the elevator is broken. We endure rudeness. We see death. But we are also the first to hold newborns on our way to the maternity hospital.” “The ambulance is a place where every day strangers die, and in the morning you drink coffee and go save the next ones. Because there is no other way.” IMAGINE: A CALL. THERE COULD BE ANYTHING BEYOND THE DOOR... A woman has been “sleeping” in a chair for three days. Her husband is drinking tea nearby and watching TV. A young guy with a stab wound… to his index finger. A knife in the carotid artery — and the man is conscious. A girl with “poisoning” from boric acid. 300 calls a year from a man who “feels” a stroke every day. “FROM CALL TO RESCUE” is not just a chronicle of a medic's daily life, but a deep immersion into an atmosphere where reality mixes with drama, and fear and hope coexist side by side.
