About this listen
Life on the frontline isn’t all flashing blue lights and dramatic rescues. Sometimes it’s saving a life with seconds to spare. Sometimes it’s searching for a missing TV remote, arguing with a GP’s receptionist, or realising the “cardiac arrest” is really just acid reflux. And sometimes, it’s sitting quietly with a family as their loved one takes their last breath.
In this brutally honest, darkly funny, and deeply human memoir, paramedic Trevor Wain takes you through one full year on the job. Each day brings a new call, a new patient, and a fresh reminder that truth is always stranger than fiction.
From tragic to ridiculous — cardiac arrests, collapses in supermarkets, patients who need help but don’t want it, and even the odd child with their finger stuck somewhere it definitely shouldn’t be — Trevor captures the raw, unfiltered reality of ambulance life.
With humour as sharp as a defibrillator shock and compassion at the heart of every story, A Year in Green is more than just a diary. It’s a frontline tour through the chaos, comedy, and quiet heartbreak that comes with wearing the green uniform.
