Saving lives is the ultimate purpose of the Red Crescent paramedics. It is crucial to enable safe, effective, and efficient performance of paramedics globally. In Saudi Arabia, the Red Crescent faces at least over 280,000 cases every year.
Therefore, this study aims to address the factors affecting the performance of the Red Crescent paramedics.
Descriptive qualitative study and all data processed were analyzed using thematic analysis.
In total, 31 paramedic staff in Bisha city were invited to participate in this descriptive qualitative study. Among them, 11 paramedics agreed to participate in an in-depth semi-structured interview.
The findings of the research indicated three themes. The first theme was a lack of awareness in society, with three sub-themes: types of emergency calls, the crowd that gathers at the incident location, and people interruptions. Theme 2 was the long distance and road obstacles, and other factors that affect the paramedics were the third theme.
Policymakers and the community should obtain a clear understanding of the Red Crescent paramedic interventions to help to create policies, legislation, and guidelines suitable for the needs of paramedics.
拯救生命是红新月会医护人员的最终目标。在全球范围内,确保医护人员能够安全、有效且高效地开展工作至关重要。在沙特阿拉伯,红新月会每年至少面临超过28万起病例。
因此,本研究旨在探讨影响红新月会医护人员工作表现的因素。
采用描述性定性研究方法,对所有处理的数据进行主题分析。
比沙市共有31名医护人员受邀参与这项描述性定性研究。其中,11名医护人员同意参加深入的半结构化访谈。
研究结果表明了三个主题。第一个主题是社会意识淡薄,包括三个子主题:紧急呼叫类型、聚集在事故现场的人群以及人员干扰。第二个主题是距离远和道路障碍,影响医护人员的其他因素为第三个主题。
政策制定者和社区应清楚了解红新月会医护人员的干预措施,以帮助制定适合医护人员需求的政策、法规和指南。
