Do People who have problems with setting boundaries tend to gravitate towards EMS?
I've been thinking about interesting observations about this job, and something I've noticed is that we all seem to have problems with boundary setting, which seems to often contribute to a lot of the problems we see.
I can't speak for others. I believe I'm really good at keeping my boundaries. I don't get into personal stuff with coworkers and never discuss personal stuff with patients. Hell, I won't even tell patients what town I'm from. I just respond with where I work.
Maybe things have changed in recent years. I'm a very old dog on the road. 30+.
