Sister Jen's nightshift kick-starts as a stabbing victim, Colin Richards, who's 35, is rushed in by ambulance with injuries to his lung, arm and liver. He's accompanied by his 19-year-old girlfriend, Esther, who was lying in bed next to him when they were awoken at gunpoint.
Esther lovingly watches over Colin, who admits he was no angel a few years back. 'I just felt like he just needed hugs and like smiles and me telling him he was gonna be OK,' Esther says. 'I just felt like I had to really be there for him when that happened.'
Jen says: 'A lot of people don't have anybody to look after them, to love them, I think that's sad... I think everybody deserves to be looked after and loved and cared for.'
While Esther cradles her boyfriend in Resus, Jen tends to Nancy Shirley, 86, who has spent her life alone and fell over at home. 'If you're happily married and got a family you know it must be very nice for people; I've always thought that,' says Nancy. 'When I would have been courting the war was on and all the men were away.'
And in Minors, former international lawyer Robert Knutson is patched up after collapsing on the street, drunk. He has lost his wife and family after years of alcoholism.
'I don't have a home... the bed in the hospital is the nicest bed I've been in, in a long time... I'm sorry but that's the state of Robert Knutson,' he says. But, having been treated with care and compassion, Robert decides to make a change.
