Ethical and existential issues on healthcare in a combat environment To provide care in such an environment poses ethical dilemmas for medical personnel, particularly of a prioritization nature, where personnel may need to make choices between different people who are in need of care.

The work is often heavy, both physically and mentally, with an uncensored environment and with no given solutions. Could it be that ambulance personnel over the years become cold and have trouble talking about how they feel or do they, on the contrary, become more open and emotional in front of their close family and friends and their patients?
Is heart rate an equally accurate marker of stress as salivary cortisol? There is evidence that an accelerated heart rate is linked to increased illness. Ambulance personnel appears to have an increased post-traumatic risk. The study "Is heart rate an equally accurate marker of stress as salivary cortisol?" tests the hypothesis that the heart rate of ambulance personnel correlates to cortisol in saliva.
