Over the past couple of months we have had employees get injured on duty and off duty on their drive home (still wearing uniforms). After seeing how our trauma hospital (we have a contract with them for work related injuries) treats our employees, it got me wondering if this is fairly common or very rare with the EMS/ER community.
If they know you are an EMT or Medic are you treated differently from other patients or the same?
Our hospital seems to go above and beyond with fire/EMS/LEO patients. Today was the first day I have ever heard a doctor ask a patient what pain medication they would like followed by a list of all the pain meds the hospital has.
