In this thrilling new episode of Lift & Shift, we dive into the heart of Venice’s canal-based emergency system. No roads. No sirens weaving through traffic. Just water, tides, and medical precision. We meet Marco from Croce Rossa Venezia, and for the first time, we board a hydro ambulance—a floating ER racing through narrow canals. How do they stabilize a patient on a bumpy boat? What happens when high tide blocks the route? And how do they transfer someone from boat to land ambulance without a hitch? We see it all—step by step—in a real-life simulation that shows the incredible coordination, care, and adrenaline behind Venice’s unique way of saving lives. Thank you Croce Rossa Venezia.
