EMTs are courageous, hardworking, everyday heroes, that are often overlooked. Until you need them. County Rescue is the new, original series on Great American Family channel, and streaming on Great American Pure Flix. This is the story of an EMT unit who save lives while navigating their own life, love, and faith.
County Rescue Review
While County Recuse is about EMTs, it’s not just a medical show. This show concentrates on the relationships between the EMTs.
Their relationships with each other, their families, and with God. Their faith is foremost in all their conversations.
“I want to be who God wants me to be.” was said by one of the characters. To me, this feels like the theme of the EMTs on County Rescue.
County Rescue is suitable for the whole family because there are no gory medical scenes. However, the themes of some of the episodes may make it not suitable for your younger kids. Suicide is one of the themes in a couple of the episodes. If you have a teen sensitive to this issue, you might want to watch it first to see if it is suitable for them.
Watch the County Rescue Trailer
A couple of the episodes deal with one of EMTs having repeated problems with alcohol. He had his fellow paramedics called for him a couple of times. With their encouragement, he was able to move forward with his life, recover, and go to rehab. In a later episode, he acknowledges to the EMTs that he wouldn’t have survived, and wouldn’t have had the courage to go to rehab, if it wasn’t for them.
Over the course of a few episodes, we see Dani feeling called to be an EMT. As a new rookie, her family questions her decision. In one episode, she was going to quit because of her past, and her family always telling her she couldn’t do it. She decided she didn’t want to be that person anymore. She wanted to be who God wanted her to be. So she withdrew her resignation and returned to work. And that very next shift, she was able to talk a young woman out of committing suicide. She said “I was thinking maybe God had me here just for her”.
I love a good medical show. but I I loved how this show concentrates more on the people and their relationships, then it does the medical aspect. I enjoyed watching County Rescue, and I look forward to seeing more episodes in the future.
