🛡️ Healthcare Workers Deserve Safe Workplaces

Emergency department teams care for patients during some of the most stressful moments of their lives. That does not mean violence or threats should be accepted as part of the job.

A safe workplace supports:
✔️ Better patient care
✔️ Stronger teams
✔️ A healthier work environment
✔️ A safer community

Respect and safety matter—for patients, families, and healthcare professionals.

🚨 Emergency Medicine Myth vs. Fact

Myth: “If I can still walk or talk, it’s not an emergency.”

Fact: Some serious medical conditions may not look severe at first. Chest pain, difficulty breathing, sudden weakness, severe allergic reactions, and other concerning symptoms should never be ignored.

When in doubt, seek medical advice. If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911. Emergency Physicians in Puerto Rico are there for YOU!
