| Summary: | It is a prevalent misconception that healthcare professionals are specialists and thus can effectively manage their health. This is probably true, but given recent pandemics and the rise in violence in medical settings, one is compelled to question whether their health and safety are sufficient for a robust healthcare system.

We thus strive to answer this question and suggest potential remedies to this growing public health issue. |
