In season 1, a main character goes to see a therapist while recovering from sex addiction and a recent trauma of seeing someone fall to their death. He has sex with his therapist during the session, which is legally sexual assault due to the power dynamic and the character not being in the right headspace to consent. The show does not portray this as SA and plays it for laughs a couple times in the show.

in season 2 episode 5 around the 14 minute mark a racist man vomits on his own waste. then in episode 6 season 2 there was a bug eating contest and a man starts chocking on a clump of crickets. the firefighters pull it out but then a little girl starts to cough up bugs. season 2 episode 12 about 20:10 minutes in a man vomits all over Chimney. visual seen and audio heard. again in episode 12 season 2 at the very end (about 43 minutes) a man vomits into a bag. season 3 episode 1 about 13 minutes in starts coughing up blood, he coughs up quite a bit and it never speed out but he does cough a lot. it bothered me a bit. season 3 episode 3 a man suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning vomits on the ground. no visual, only audio. also in episode 3 of season 3 a little boy starts to cough a lot, then he starts to choke. he coughs up a lot of water and seaweed. then they take him away. (not technically vomit, but it did bother me.) season 3 episode 12 the first case they are on the guy seems like he might puke but he doesn’t, nothing even close i promise. just wanted to let people know.

In an episode in season 2 (I don't remember which one), a patient refuses treatment of:
- Hen - 118's paramedic - because she's a black lesbian woman;
- Chimney - 118's paramedic - because he is an Asian man;
- Eddie - 118's firefighter - almost treats the patient, until he reveals his last name to be "Diaz" which is Hispanic/Latino. The patient also rejects being treated by him because of this.
Eventually Buck - 118's firefighter - treats the man as he's white, male, his sexuality is assumed to be straight (his is never confirmed so it might be false) & says his last name's "Buckley". The man deems him "a true American" & allows him to treat him.
Everyone of the 118 - including Bobby & Buck - are irritated about this incident.
- There's also an episode in season 3 that has racial profiling towards Michael, May & Harry Grant where a cop almost kills Harry when he sees him move to a sitting position. May makes her paper about Athena being an enemy as she is a cop. Michael struggles with accepting the fact he has to give Harry the talk about what he as a black boy should do if he's stopped by the police. Athena deals with the fallout her family has & how thanks to her a lot has changed already but that there is still work to be done.

- A car crashes into the back of the 118's firetruck after it's revealed he couldn't slow down no matter how he tried in Season 3. The character gets out of the car with minor injuries;
- A woman & her 2 sons almost plummet from a ravine ledge in Season 3. The 118 saves manages to save all 3 occupants of the car;
- In the Season 3 Halloween Episode a woman collides with another person. Due to the bump on her head & disillusionment coming from the head injury, she doesn't notice & isn't stopped until the very end of the episode by Buck who is lucky enough to spot her at a gas station;
- Hen commits accidental vehicular manslaughter in Season 3.

- In the Season 3 Halloween episode a woman hits a man with her car & sustains a head-injury that leaves her severely disillusioned with her surroundings that she doesn't register the man is stuck in her windshield. This goes on for the entire episode until Buck spots her at the gas station at the very end.

It used to be somewhat tame in seasons 1 & 2 but blood/gore becomes a lot more commonplace from season 3 onwards.
If it triggers you, I'd suggest to watch the season very carefully because it is in about every episode.
