Synopsis


Suzi: "Ambulance service, what's the problem?" Caller: "Help! My baby's not breathing!"

When you dial 999 for an ambulance, Suzi's could be the voice you hear on the other end of the phone. Working in one of the country's busiest control rooms, it is her job to stay on the phone until the ambulance arrives, and to give instructions that could save your life.

From taking the first calls after the terrorist attacks on 7th July 2005, to delivering a baby over the phone, whether helping the child whose mum has attempted suicide, or dealing with the many regular callers - serial hoaxer The Banana Man, Sally the young alcoholic and Mad Brenda, each with their own surprising stories to tell - Suzi has heard it all.

Nee Naw will take you on a whirlwind tour of life in the emergency lane, introducing you to some unforgettable characters. Suzi Brent will make you laugh, she'll make you cry, but never again will you dial 999 for a broken finger...

Suzi: "Ambulance service, what's the problem?"
Caller: "I've eaten too much, and now I feel really sick.
Can you die from eating too much?"

Nee Naw

One of the funniest and most interesting non-fiction books I have ever read.

By Aggie / Spinebreakers Crew

Aggie's review of Nee Naw: It definitely was interesting to read and I could just dip in and out of the various stories. However as well as being humorous it also had elements of sadness...

You will never call 999 in the same way again!

By Feffy / Spinebreakers Crew

Feffy's review of Nee Naw by Suzi Brent: I ended up reading the book in only two sittings yet the style of each blog entry means that it does remain a perfect time-filler.

Good if you have a spare couple of minutes on your hands

By Merinda / Spinebreakers Crew

Merinda's review of Nee Naw by Suzi Brent: I suggest everyone reads this book and learn about the dignity, grace and at times restraint EMDs need to have in order to take you call.
