Hello Kenny.
Good to meet you. I am a medic in Hamilton, Ontario Canada, with 23 years of " helping people". I put in a request for information regarding starting a study on PTSD and how it affects medic. Another medic asked the same question, but as of yet did not get a reply. Since you are an educator, maybe you could investigate, and I can get the ball rolling.
