The Management Board of the Bulgarian Union of Medical Assistants and Paramedics (BSLAF) strongly opposes another case of aggression towards a medical specialist. This is stated in an opinion of the organization in connection with the attack on a paramedic in Berkovitsa.

‘We express our support to the paramedic with many years of professional experience Lyubomir Ivanov Davidkov from the Berkovitsa FSMP’, the BLAF said and added: “We are convinced that, at a time when the shortage of medical professionals is becoming more visible and problematic, it is absurd and unacceptable for patients to injure medics while caring for their health.

There are over 1300 medical assistants (feldshers) in the country, working in the emergency medical centers and their affiliates. Our colleagues are not only overwhelmed, but also often subject to verbal and physical aggression. The case in FSMP Berkovitsa is not a single one. Unfortunately, we have come to the point where we need urgent help to restore the public’s faith and respect for medical professionals.”
