ALL SAINTS is an Australian medical drama series; in this episode, Terri becomes involved in a difficult situation with a doctor who objects to his patient's wish to refuse further treatment.
drugs
A man says he would prefer a joint to relax him before a medical procedure, but is told that the drugs used are a 'legal high' that he may regard as a benefit of being in hospital.
theme
Upsetting scenes are centred on a terminal cancer patient's struggle to assert her wish to refuse continued treatment of her condition against the objections of a senior doctor. The theme is handled frankly, but sensitively.
additional issues
Bad language includes uses of 'bloody', 'bastard', 'bugger', 'arse', 'piss' and 'hell'. The behaviour of a hospital patient with a dependency on alcohol becomes erratic from withdrawal, and leads to him briefly attacking a doctor. There are infrequent mild sex references.

ALL SAINTS is an Australian medical drama series; in this episode, Harry is admitted to the hospital with chest pains, while Jared's sympathy for a teenage patient puts him at odds with the other nurses.
language
Bad language includes ‘bitch’, ‘bloody’, ‘pissed off’, ‘damn’, ‘screw’, ‘God’, ‘willy’ and ‘bum’.
discrimination
Medical staff address a Chilean patient as ‘Speedy Gonzales’. Staff and patients make harsh and dismissive comments about another patient who has tried to kill herself, and in one scene a nurse slaps the distressed patient in an attempt to calm her down. Such attitudes and behaviours are clearly criticised. A patient is ashamed and upset after hearing a nurse make unprofessional comments about the size of his penis. There is also brief sexism, as well as brief and undetailed references to the Holocaust.
drugs
There are infrequent verbal references to a patient becoming aggressive while being treated for a heroin overdose.
suicide and self-harm
A patient is admitted after attempting to take her own life, leading to occasional verbal and visual suicide references throughout the episode.
additional issues
A mildly bloody bandage is seen on a patient’s arm. There are occasional scenes of emotional upset, and infrequent references to assisted dying. In another scene, women are heard laughing over a senior doctor’s reputation for ‘hitting on’ female colleagues. Sustained mild threat occurs as doctors try to resuscitate a patient.

ALL SAINTS is an Australian medical drama series; in this episode, a patient admitted with a stab wound causes disruption and frayed tempers.
language
Bad language includes ‘bitch’, ‘bloody’, ‘bugger off’, ‘bastard’, ‘crap’, ‘damn’, ‘God’, ‘hell’ and ‘bum’.
drugs
There are occasional condemnatory references to drug dealing. In other scenes, medical staff argue over whether a patient referred to as a ‘junkie’ is genuinely in pain or exhibiting drug-seeking behaviour.
injury detail
Bloody images occur as paramedics treat a patient in the aftermath of an off-screen stabbing. Later, a patient is injected with a needle in visually discreet fashion. Yellow fluid initially believed to be pus is briefly seen in a drainage tube running from a covered wound on another patient's abdomen.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A male patient and his friends catcall a female doctor, who ignores their behaviour.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
additional issues
Scenes of mild threat include one in which a patient grabs a doctor’s arm in a threatening manner; the doctor is unintimidated, however. A comic storyline involves characters getting drunk and suffering from hangovers. Other issues include scenes of emotional upset, references to mental health and violence, as well as mild rude humour.
