I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'emergency help' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'admire a pc exceptional' is the wordplay.
'exceptional' indicates an anagram.
'admire'+'a'+'pc'='admireapc'
'admireapc' with letters rearranged gives 'PARAMEDIC'.

'person rendering' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for paramedic that I've seen before include "Assistant in ambulance maybe" , "Emergency first-aider" , "Epic drama (anag.)" , "Member of ambulance crew" , "Professional first-aider" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
