A demanding night shift at Barnsley Casualty is the setting for the next installment of Casualty 24/7, airing Wednesday, 21 May at 9:00 PM BST on 5. The episode will document the medical team’s efforts as they confront a series of urgent cases.
Sister Abbey takes charge of a department already at capacity, with no free cubicles for incoming patients. Dr. Jake Mullen begins a three-night rotation, immediately tending to Mary, a 79-year-old woman whose condition requires swift diagnosis. Elsewhere, Consultant Dave Walker directs 56-year-old Steven, presenting with a dangerously high heart rate, straight to the resuscitation unit. The Barnsley Casualty night shift continues to see its share of unusual and complex medical situations, with coffee a vital component for Sister Abbey and her team.
The episode also features Emergency Nurse Practitioner Tony, who treats 12-year-old Lucy after a snake bite from her aunt’s pet. Dr. Mullen is also seen caring for 87-year-old Colin, whose diabetes has led to infected wounds and mobility issues.
