Biography: science, technology & engineering; Accident & emergency medicine
Shift Change is a high-adrenaline memoir that races through the chaos of a UK frontline paramedic's work before slamming into the moment everything changes.

Violent collisions, cardiac arrests and terrorist attacks are scenes that test the limits of human endurance. Colin Bamforth has lived the kind of shifts that most people only see on the news. The calls come hard and fast, a blur of sirens, split-second decisions, and the raw edge of life and death. But after years of walking the knife-edge, the impact of countless high-stress events begins to leave its mark.

This is the story of stepping away, not in defeat, but in survival. Leaving the frantic streets and outback roads behind, Bamforth faces the quiet, unfamiliar world beyond the uniform, confronting what happens when the adrenaline fades and the memories don't.

Told with the pacing of a thriller and the honesty of a confession, Shift Change is an unflinching look at the price of service, the resilience it demands, and the transformation that follows when you finally hang up the keys to the ambulance.
