McGuire, S., Lampman, M., Smith, O., et al.. (2024). Impact of Workplace Violence Against Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Prehospital Emergency Care. 1-9.
The authors conducted focus groups and interviews with 22 EMS health professionals to understand their exposure to workplace violence. The results showed that EMS personnel are often verbally abused and that workplace violence was common. The risk of violence and perception that EMS are no longer valued by their communities impacted their interactions with patients.
