Evidence-Based Guidelines for Fatigue Risk Management in Emergency Medical Services (2018)

  [close]

Administrators of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) operations lack guidance on how to mitigate workplace fatigue, which affects greater than half of all EMS personnel. The primary objective of the Fatigue in EMS Project was to create an evidence-based guideline for fatigue risk management tailored to EMS operations. Based on a review of the evidence, the panel developed a guideline with 5 recommendations for fatigue risk management in EMS operations.
