RTE's Ryan Tubridy has praised an ambulance crew in Wexford who went above and beyond for a woman who had fallen in her home.
The woman lives alone and took a fall but thanks to the work of the emergency services she is back "chatting and drinking tea".
The lady's child posted on Twitter under the username "Yes Ireland Can": "The Wexford ambulance crew got the key from the keysafe outside, got my mother on a stretcher, packed a bag for her, fed the cat, locked the house and put the key back.
"Thanks to all for kind words of concern. Nothing broken. She is chatting and drinking tea for Ireland."
Thankfully, the woman didn't break anything in the fall and Ryan was blown away by the kindness of the Wexford crew.
He told listeners on his RTE Radio One show: "Appreciate how amazing these people are.
"They're not just doing a job you know.
"They're not just automated, they bring kind, they bring joy, they bring soul.
"It is gorgeous and that's what it's all about."
Listeners of the show were full of praise for the Wexford ambulance crew.
Many people paid tribute to the team: "The kindness they show is wonderful. Something positive out of a worrying situation. Hope your mam is doing ok."
Another added: "Oh my goodness isn't that amazing. I hope your mum is ok."
The Wexford ambulance crew were highlighted as "amazing" and "top notch".
A woman added: "Absolutely wonderful service with compassion."
One more told of their own experience with them: "Wexford Ambulance Crew are amazing.
"They came to me several times, when Mum fell and I unable to lift her.
"They reassured with kindness and banter, one crew member will live in my mind, he saw a difficult situation and spoke with me that night.
"Only for him, I dread to think."
Another posted: "Great work from the National Ambulance service in Wexford."
