[Work and safety conditions in transportation of patients between hospitals in Denmark].
Questions on the safety and comfort for the staff on interhospital transports were put to assistant matrons of anaesthesiological wards in Denmark. The investigation shows that ambulances leave with unattached equipment on the floor or in the patient's bed and that the staff either sit without safety belts or stand up beside the patient during transport. The ambulance interior is organized in such a way that the staff's working positions are negatively affected.
