Set medics are trained medical professionals. They handle on-site medical support for film, TV, and high-end productions. From providing first aid to managing emergencies, their role is crucial in ensuring a safe and productive environment on set.
The importance of having set medics cannot be overstated. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), 604,000 workers in the UK sustained an injury at work in 2023/24. Productions—especially those with stunts, high-risk locations, or tight schedules—face unique risks. More often than not, they require immediate medical attention.
Premier Medics ensures these challenges are managed efficiently. Our clients include small, independent productions as well as large-scale ones. We are excited to be able to provide packages that suit the client's needs.
At Premier Medics, we provide more than medical support - we bring peace of mind to every set with:
Our medics are fully registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) or the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). So we can ensure the highest standards of care.
Every team member undergoes enhanced DBS checks. This guarantees their suitability for working in sensitive environments.
Our CQC-regulated ambulances provide advanced medical care for high-risk stunts or remote locations. They can also quickly transport patients to hospitals if needed. Learn more about our ambulance services.
Book a tailored First Aid at Work (FAW) course to empower your crew with essential life-saving skills. This proactive approach enhances safety on set and helps mitigate risks. Explore our training options.

"With Premier Medics, we feel in safe hands on every shoot. Whether it’s a studio show with celebs playing games at height or a location shoot abseiling on Dartmoor, you can trust they have the right personnel and expertise to have you covered. All of the medics we’ve had have been professional, friendly, engaged with the shoot and are TV-savvy. During the pandemic, it’s been particularly useful to have medics from an NHS background who can speak first-hand about the devastating effects of the virus, which can be important for crew and cast to hear to make sure precautions are always taken at the highest level. Look no further than Premier Medics for all of your H&S needs!"
"Thank you so much for supporting our shoot. Our Premier Medics Covid Supervisor was absolutely wonderful! Not only was she warm, friendly and approachable, but she knew her stuff and with her medic training, she was everything we needed. She got on really well with our client H&S department who were on set - it could have been stressful but she was so on it and made everything easy. The client commented too and said they wanted her on all our shoots. Look forward to the next time! Thankyou Premier Medics."

Set medics provide immediate care for injuries and emergencies, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum safety. Productions with stunts, remote locations, or high-pressure environments must have trained medical staff. They would greatly benefit from having on-site medics at all times. Relying only on emergency services can cause delays. This is especially true in rural areas, where response times often exceed 30 minutes.
