I'm sorry- I dont have a copy. Just emailing as I remember being shown it as part of my nurse training (a very long time ago!) Its not a drama/doc, its more a melodramatic 'Towering Inferno' sort of drama with the aim to shock (quite rightly). Extremely vivid and suitably alarming at the time- maybe wouldnt be by today's standard! A burned hand of a corpse (otherwise covered by a sheet) is the sort of thing we see now, but hadnt then. It would probably also come over as very out-of-date (you know, nurses in frilly hats and all that). Although more recent training videos/DVDs might not be set in a hospital, they might be better. So although it was great at the time, if you cant track one down, its maybe not a bit loss!! There was one I was shown as part of fire training last year which included real TV footage of the Bradford football fire, which was shocking in seeing the really fast spread of the fire- and the casualties- with extra awfulness as it was real. But that's a classic thing for a user to say- 'there's there good thing but I cant remember what its called or where to get it'!

I rang our fire officer because one of her predecessors used to use it in the 80s but unfortunately she doesn't have a copy but would love to see it if a copy could be located.
