Ambulance staff stress: Anneli took care of a dying person while the perpetrator was standing next to him

Hear her talk about that situation in the clip above.

Personnel in the ambulance and emergency services must be trained to prevent stress diseases.

A doctoral dissertation made by Kåre Karlsson at the ambulance service in Skaraborg shows that ambulance personnel have a greatly increased heart rate and higher values ​​of stress hormones during an emergency.

In the long run, this leads to sequelae, such as high blood pressure with an increased risk of heart attack and depression.

- You probably think that you should be this hero who can handle all situations and "I should not be sad and I should not sleep badly", says Anneli Wikberg who believes that it would have been valuable to talk about this with experienced colleagues when she was new to the job.
