In the fifth episode in the series we're in rural Yorkshire with District Nurse Michelle. Michelle has lived and worked in the community for the past 10 years and works in a team that tries to help frail people avoid being taken into care.
Michelle has a new patient who needs her help: Wendy is an 86-year-old widow who keeps falling in her own home and badly hurting herself. Her most recent fall left her with sixteen stitches in her ear. Michelle starts to investigate the problem but persuading Wendy to co-operate with her advice proves to be an unexpected challenge. Together they need to find a way to keep Wendy independent and in her own home.
