Low morale: diminished enthusiasm, motivation, and satisfaction, often due to challenging conditions, lack of recognition, or poor leadership in a workplace.

Health care’s next big problem? Not enough ambulances — by @pvanberk tvo.org/article/health…
We must thank paramedics for alerting the public to this enormous threat to health. Us in ER - me - make EMS crews wait hours to offload. I do all I can working with our nurses and paramedics, but there just are no beds. @416TPSUnit
Can you imagine calling 911 for a medical emergency but having no ambulances available? In 2021, there were 1,139 Code Red incidents in Toronto (0 ambulances available).
Chronic understaffing is not sustainable! Paramedic injuries comprised 15% of all WSIB mental health stress claims in Ontario in 2021. Even though we make up only 0.002% of workers covered by WSIB in Ontario. #onpoli
A proud day for @DrCheskes, members of the research team, and all of the Paramedics who participated in this ground breaking research! Incredible work by all, @TorontoMedics, @Peel_Paramedics , @HaltonMedics207, @MLPS911, @simcoecountyPS, and @OttawaParamedic.
In a trial involving patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation, double sequential external defibrillation or vector-change defibrillation improved survival as compared with standard defibrillation. #AHA22 nej.md/3TWFwYJ
