Do any EMS agencies have written policies for sending someone home sick? such as if an employee comes to work with a cold, they can be sent home (essentially against their will), especially since we deal with immunocompromised people a lot?
With the recent video from South Carolina with the crew being sick, one of the comments made was that the paramedic was sick and just wanted to go back to bed (and it was 3am during a 24 hour shift). Maybe she shouldn't have been permitted to work if she wasn't feeling well?
