So, after writing to a State Senator, he has extended an opportunity to meet with me 1 on 1 regarding the issues that plague private EMS in Ohio. On the heels of a bill written to limit the fatigue on nurses in Ohio, I thought this would be a good opportunity to enlighten him in hopes of making a difference. However, when I meet with him, I want to go in there with solid information and stats, and not just a grievance. I did a Google search and came up empty.
Does anyone know any states that do anything that limit EMS fatigue? Such as, mandatory rest periods, etc?
Traffic deaths caused by fatigue, either to crew members or patients?
Treatment accidents caused by fatigue?
This is basically my main topic, EMS fatigue in the private sector. I may touch on other things like low wages and such but I know not much they can do there.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
