Survey reveals that NHS #ambulance staff have poor training and development compared to other #health professions and that they are the worst for: work-related stress, giving staff appraisals, appraisal quality, team working and staff engagement.

I'd love to say I'm shocked but unfortunately I'm not. Unfortunately the ambulance service has always been the poor relation of the nhs. Staff development has continually been sacrificed to support operational performance. Operations is grossly under funded. Vicious circle.

Just confirming most of my points on my dissertation. Nothing new and is not only about ‘operational demand’ is actually also about status quo, changing management (people) and changing culture in the service. I don't see this happening anytime soon.

We expect to work without fear, Tonight however, I have been assaulted and had a patient spit in my eye. This is NOT acceptable! To clean my ambulance & be treated at hospital for IPC compliance has taken me off the road for 3 hours. #workingwithoutfear #Team999 #Infectionrisk
