Challenges of Protecting Law Enforcement Responders in the Line of Duty
ثبت نشده
چکیده
One conclusion that emerged from our discussions with the emergency re sponder community is that protecting the health and safety of law enforcement responders may be the most challenging personal protection task within the community.1 A major part of the challenge stems from the difficulties in charac terizing the hazards that law enforcement responders face. These difficulties are compounded by the fact that law enforcement personnel are typically the first on the scene of an emergency or incident, and therefore have the least amount of advance information about the scene’s potential hazards. In addition, the range of hazards that law enforcement responders face continues to increase, with exposure to infectious diseases and terrorism ranking as the most impor tant concerns.
