Hello, you're about to listen to a BBC podcast, and I'm Ed Gamble, host of another BBC podcast,

The Traitors Uncloaked. But my show is available only on BBC Sounds, just like Ellis and John's

Saturday bonus episodes, the Pop Top Ten podcast with Scott Mills and Ryland, and comedy specials

from the likes of Harriet Kemsley, Susie Ruffel and Rommasash Ranganathan. However, and maybe I'm biased,

it's really all about the traitors uncloked.

So for a whole bunch of exclusive scoops and podcasts,

listen only on BBC Sounds.

BBC Sounds, music, radio, podcasts.

Hello, thanks for listening to this edition of Inside Health. I'm Salia Asan. The programme was first

broadcast on the 27th of October 2020. At the start of the pandemic, you may remember me reporting from the emergency department here at Espiti Gwyneth, where I'd worked for four years.

All that time, I'd sent numerous patients up to the intensive care unit when they became too unwell.

And I'd always wondered what it's like up there because I've always

thought of it as a bit of a twilight zone. Then in July I moved to working on the unit myself

so I wanted to share with you a 24 hour snapshot of what it's like up here and how we're preparing for winter. We're doing shifts together. That's what we're here for. And let's hope we don't see each other like. And we're better to start than with Pete and Lisa, two consultants starting their night shift. This is the first time I've ever seen you both on shift together. So would you like explain we met in Reesos we did not in

this hospital we were set up by colleagues it was many years ago and you're both on call

this evening all night yeah it's difficult on our daughter I spend a lot of time trying to

organise childcare for her and she feels that I'm trying to get rid of her oh to

Charlotte seven now so tonight my boss is looking after her the clinical lead a lot of time trying to organise childcare for her and she feels that I'm trying to get rid of her. Oh, do you shall look?

Seven now.

So tonight my boss is looking after her, the clinical lead for the anaesthetic department. We formed a bubble at the beginning of this and she's got children the same age and so we've been helping each other out. Are you both resident? No, I'll get to go home. I'm resident. No hard feelings. It's been a relatively busy day, pretty typical really.

So Lisa's just come on. She's the consultant on for the night with her team.

Dr Ed Farley Hills is both an intensive care consultant and the COVID lead for critical care.
