A retired university administrator is treated for serious chest pains. Tests reveal he has had a heart attack and needs specialist surgery - and an air ambulance. Pharmacy technician Kieran Groat visits an elderly patient who has had trouble remembering to take her medication. A new plan to remind her and streamline her medicines means she can maintain her independence. And senior charge nurse Aimee Sutherland organises Shetland's biggest biker rally.
