TRAUMA is an observational snapshot of life at the Alfred Hospital's Trauma and Emergency Department in Melbourne, Australia. In a kaleidoscopic style Mark Fitzgerald the Director of Emergency Services, takes us into the heart of his department - a place where life-changing events occur with relentless regularity against a background of routine order. As staff and patients share their experiences of suddenly arriving at the hospital or coming home from it every day, the program explores what place the Big Questions have in an environment equipped to maintain the mechanics of life from one moment to the next.
Featuring:
The staff of the Alfred Hospital and Metropolitan Ambulance Service of Victoria, including: Mark Fitzgerald, Kylie Wilson, Karen Flett, Justine Bradley, Tara Merifield, Gerard O'Reilly, Stewart Hill and Michelle Wooley.
Patients and their families at the Alfred's Trauma and Emergency Department during October 2003 including: Roger Wilson, Rosemary Dimasi, Jenny Sturt, Dean Hemphill, George Quinn, Allen McFarlane, Beatrice Dickens and Adam Matthews.
