I liked it a lot. Wonder if they're going to do one on King County.
 
That is pretty awesome!

I would love for us to be featured ... but given the single digit number of hospitals who can perform PCI, that 3 out of the 9 are in Auckland, that those that are not are hours apart (by road or air) and the low (but increasing) use of 12 lead ECG (particularly among older, non Degree Paramedics) meaning in the overwhelming majority of cases of suspected MI we don't (or can't) do anything different (because there is not a choice of hospital destination outside Auckland) I don't think it's going to make for very interesting viewing.

Sounds interesting to me!
 
I watched all of the episodes and it was great! So much good knowledge. It was particularly helpful to see what other systems are doing, and I loved the idea that EMS should be separated from DOT and put under the department of health.
 
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed all the episodes!
