When Fists Fly

A first on the show, we discuss a recent article in JEMS and evaluate a Paramedic who struck a patient after being assaulted by that same patient. Nationwide news and hundreds of people have weighed in on the controversy online but we wanted to not only give our perspective but also how could this situation been handled without violence. What should the aftermath be? All this and more! Hear from Mike (NYS AEMT-P, CIC), Emily (NYS EMT-B, ER-RN) & Gerard (NC AEMT-P).
