The documentary series follows a skilled network of clinicians who make up the Scottish Trauma Network and take the hospital direct to their patients. 

Serving over 5.4 million people across Scotland, the team must reach those in greatest need of trauma interventions. 

The ambulance control centre in Glasgow receives almost 5,000 999 calls every day and life-changing split decisions decide which patients are at greatest risk. 

The first episode sees the trauma team travel by helicopter to a remote part of Skye to help a man trapped under a 650kg vehicle.
