Probably unpopular opinion but I think there should be a fitness test for all frontline roles - also think the service should be a bit more like the Fire and provide facilities to ensure the staff can keep themselves healthy.

NQP’s: on occasion, you’re going to come to a job, where the patient is sick - and you don’t know why they are sick, but they are. There is no shame whatsoever in saying “I’m not sure” or “I don’t know.”
