“…Emergency healthcare services are an extremely important public health service, with ambulances making the first intervention in life-threatening conditions and enabling patients to rapidly and safely reach the nearest ED [ 8 ]. However, the abuse of this important service by some people increases the pressure on ambulance services and prolongs the time to reach hospital for vital ambulance calls [ 9 ].…”

Ambulance services around the world vary according to regional, cultural and socioeconomic conditions. Many countries apply different health policies locally. In Turkey, transportation from hospital to home has started to form an important part of ambulance services in recent years. The increase in the number of patients whose treatment has been completed and waiting to be referred may hinder the work of the emergency services. The aim of this study was to examine the costs, indications, and impact on workload of patients sent home by ambulance. Patients were divided into two groups according to the reasons for referral. The distance to home, transport time and cost were calculated according to the reasons for transport. Patients who were transferred to other clinics or hospitals by ambulance were excluded from the study. The findings showed that the hospital-to-home transfer rate during the study period was 11.4%. Although 9.7% of all cases transferred from our hospital to home were due to social indications, these cases accounted for 16.26% of the total costs. These results suggest that providing home transport services to selected patient groups for medical reasons should be seen as part of the treatment. However, the indications for home transport should not be exceeded and an additional burden should not be placed on the fragile health service.

This study aimed to evaluate working conditions, expectations, job satisfaction, service and social conditions of 112 EHS staff working in the city of XX, to determine the difficulties they face and to provide suggestions for more efficient working condition. Method: This study was conducted with health workers working at 112 EHS in the city of XX. A survey form was developed to investigate their service and social conditions. It was converted into an electronic survey consisting of 29 questions via Google Forms. 252 health workers participated in study by filling the electronic survey. Results: The most important factors affecting the job performance of workers were job satisfaction/respect and the level of salary. Workers reported the majority of the cases encountered during a 24-hour shift were green zone patients.The average arrival time to the cases and the delivery time of the patients to the hospital are mostly within 0-10 minutes. Emergency room physician's approach and the lack of allied health personnel were the most common problems during patients' delivery to hospital. Most workers stated that protective measures on occupational safety in the EHS were insufficient and that they were subjected to physical assault. Conclusion: As a result of our study, it was determined that 112 employees experienced job dissatisfaction.The reasons for this situation are the level of salary, lack of dignity, fear of security.However, there are some deficiencies regarding the use and organization of 112 emergency health services. It is necessary to immediately improve 112 EHS workers’ working conditions and the coordination of EHS.
