"I vividly remember Phil but not much else and I don't know what would have happened if he hadn't been there," said Mr McWilliams, who recently met up with Mr Fuller and the ambulance team who helped him. "Thankfully, he was and they worked together amazingly to save my life."
Mr Fuller, who is an emergency care assistant at the East of England Ambulance Service, was due to finish his volunteer shift at midnight on 17 October when the 999 call came in at 23:45 BST. He contacted the dispatcher to say he would attend as it was just a short drive from his home - a decision that "almost certainly saved the life" of Mr McWilliams, the ambulance service said.
"It's quite emotional and a great feeling knowing that you have saved someone's life," Mr Fuller remarked after successfully responding to Mr McWilliams during a cardiac incident, highlighting the profound impact of timely interventions.
