Video Description

In Barnsley Hospital's A&E department 42-year-old Michelle has been rushed in by ambulance having suffered her second stroke. A&E bed 12 is ready for her, and doctors must react quickly to limit the damage caused to her brain. Over in Birmingham's Queen Elizabeth Hospital Day Surgery Unit, bed 41 is waiting for 25-year-old children's entertainer Sophie. She has come in to have reconstructive surgery on her fingertip after being attacked by a dog. Sophie is hoping that surgeons will be able to save as much of her finger as possible. In Leeds Children's Hospital, 14-year-old Anna is having a frame removed, which doctors hope will have straightened the bone in her leg. She has a very rare genetic disorder called acrodysostosis, which causes abnormalities in her bones. She is a keen dancer and is hoping to get back to being a normal active teenager. Back in Barnsley Hospital's busy A&E department, resus bed two is prepped and on standby for 76-year-old Molly, who has been admitted with suspected sepsis - a potentially deadly condition. By her side is her son Andrew, who is also her primary carer. Secret Life of the Hospital Bed is a unique 20-part series where across the 60-minute episodes, fixed-rig cameras tell the story of patients who enter four different hospitals across the UK. The hospitals are The Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle, The Queen's Hospital in Romford, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham and The Great Northern Children’s Hospital in Newcastle. The circumstances, the ailment, the treatment, the length of stay - everything is personal to the individual involved. But the one constant throughout is the bed.
