About this Episode

For paramedics, click here for CE credits

May is mental health awareness month. Unfortunately, EMS clinicians are at high risk for mental health due to long hours, low pay, and a chaotic work environment. Yet, mental health in the prehospital realm is a taboo topic. No one likes to talk about it and some don’t believe it exists. As part of mental awareness month, we will focus on clinicians' stories, EMS research on suicidal behavior, and resources for anyone who is hurting and feels that they are alone.

In this podcast we have special guests:

Fiona Thomas EMT-P

President of the Code Green Campaign

Bridgette Svancarek MD FAEMS

Assistant professor of Emergency Medicine

Washington University

Happy EMS Week you prehospital studs!!!

We know it’s usually hospitals who are liable…not EMS systems...right!?!?!? Maybe not! Little do you know, that EMS systems can be liable. Why do you ask?

Ep. 32: The Better Angels of our Nature: Trauma Informed Consent

For paramedics, click HERE for CAPCE credit!

Brought to you by Urgent Admin which is an intuitive one-touch solution that connects in-field clinicians and medical directors in real-time,

While we in EMS LOVE new shiny toys or flashy treatments that were only used in the hospital, some patient treatments require us to take a step back and see our patients as more than just that traumatic accident. Enter Trauma Informed Care, which is a way to treat our patients not only with their immediate medical needs but a way to prevent the long-lasting effects of trauma. This requires us to take a step back and see trauma in all its forms and treat our patients by the better angels of our nature. To understand this further, the But Why EMS team interviews:
