The work of emergency medicine and firefighting exacts its toll on the human bodies that do it. Yes, there are the common strains and pains that come with this often-physical work. But there are other less-known factors that insidiously reduce wellbeing in firefighters and EMS providers. In many cases these factors lead to premature death.
