EMS Apathy + Body Cams = Legal Liability: Case Studies Caught on Camera

EMS clinician apathy can lead to devastating patient outcomes. But when it's caught on camera, it can also have major legal ramifications for EMS professionals. Using case studies where spectacular failures of empathy were followed by bad patient outcomes, you'll learn how attorneys and prosecutors have used these videos against EMS clinicians, in both civil and criminal cases. You'll also see a high-risk, bad outcome case that was similarly caught on video, but where no lawsuits or criminal charges resulted. Importantly, we'll compare these cases and learn the important lessons they offer for all EMS professionals going forward to reduce legal liability while improving patient care.
