if they are doing their job right or if they can even accomplish their job. This can lead to workers
being sad and dreading going to work in fear of messing something up and causing another
anxiety attack. When EMS workers become sad it begins to affect their work ethic. According to
Michael Chapman, It is important to maintain good ethics in while working in the medical field
because if you do not you could end up in major lawsuits and legal battles.
Depression may not be as severe to some as it is to others. To others if may result in
recovery but to others they never get their happy ending. According to a recent survey 66% of
EMS workers have admitted they have attempted suicide while 37% have contemplated it
(Newland). Not everyone knows how to cope with depression and it ends badly for those people
but not everyone has to end that way. There are many programs and groups to help people
suffering with depression from work in the Medical field. All people have to do is accept the fact
that they need help, which can be more difficult than having depression itself, and find help.
EMS is a very stressful job and can lead to anxiety, PTSD, and many more conditions. If
not treated they can lead to depression. Depression is very serious and no one should ever try to
ignore and deny it. No one should have to cope with depression alone because it can be
dangerous. Too many people have taken their lives because of not being able to understand and
seek the help they need.
