Most Violent Profession

[Shadow Wolf]

Not in the top 25.
Top 100 likely though.

I think you're going with ones where workers are get killed at highest rates.
This is violence amd being attacked. Specifically "incidence rate for nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses involving days away from work resulting from intentional injury by other person...."
Again, we aren't playing victim olympics.

The hospital I've been living at for the last few months has roughly 2 or 3 "Safety Support Team" assistance calls daily while I've been there (mind you that's only about 8 out of 24 hours). That team is a specific adaptive response to suicide, homicide and threat.

Several times. Daily. Last week an entire (12 person) police unit was dispatched to the hospital. The staff is understaffed, and undertrained on how to safely handle violent patients.

The health/behavioral care system in the US is in shambles.

It really is.

It really is.

And that's putting it very mildly.

The OP doesn't want us pursuing this.

Do it yourself in another thread,

So then the title of the thread and the OP of the thread are about two different topics and you want to stick with the OP topic and not the title topic?

If that's what makes it make sense for you sure.

If my title is that much of a problem I'll just have the mods delete my thread. I don't participate much in my threads anyways.

And I'm tired of ****ers bringing attention to this. It wasn't and is not the point of the thread as I've said repeatedly.

If your point in mentioning again, was to be a troll. Congratulations you win.

@Revoltingest @McBell hope the two of you are happy.

@Stevicus @sayak83 @Quintessence .

If possible delete this thread or lock it, my title is turning this into a troll factory. I'm not dealing with it.

Why not instead report it instead of shutting down a good thread topic?

Want real danger....trim trees.
Those things, especially angry Ents will get ya.

Danger by accidents vs danger by violence.
Two completely different scenarios

A tree trimmer has a higher rate of death/injury by accidents
A cop has a higher rate of death/injury by violence.

The linked article doesn't make sense.

Excerpted...
Such attacks have helped make health care one of the nation's most violent fields. Data shows American health care workers now suffer more nonfatal injuries from workplace violence than workers in any other profession, including law enforcement.

Note that law enforcement isn't even in
the top 25 most dangerous jobs in USA.

What are America’s most dangerous jobs? Search our database of deadliest occupations

People who tend livestock are among those who face the most danger. How does your profession rank for workplace death rates?

www.usatoday.com

Then the article offers this seeming
contradictory statement....
Other industries outpace health care for overall danger, including deaths.

No fatal injuries, deaths, and danger are all different things.
