Rapid Response follows the life-threatening and emotionally charged situations encountered by St John Ambulance Officers as they tend to and save the lives of people in their homes, work-places and on the streets.

Narrated by Harry Lyon, Rapid Response delivers diverse and moving real-life medical emergency stories.

In this all-new series, we accompany previously featured Advanced Paramedics such as Nick Scott who is called to a viscous dog attack; John Takerei as he is confronted with the trauma of a Boy Racer car crash and an alcohol fuelled assault; and Mike McAuley when he tends to a man suffering his sixth heart attack.

In the previous series, Advanced Paramedic and volunteer lifeguard Stefan Gabor, attempted to save a man swimming out to sea with his bible. In this latest series he arrives at a party that has turned ugly and is confronted by a man dressed as Jesus. Stefan also tends to a couple when a wedding ends in tears, and for the first time, our cameras go beyond the workplace and join Stefan at his own wedding
