While professionals working in every medical speciality can claim to have been pushed to their limits by the Covid-19 pandemic, those working in EM have suffered particularly from stress. This year’s EM Day webinar will present the results of a survey into burnout among EM professionals and discuss how the situation could be improved. The survey not only shows high levels of burnout, but also highlights the alarming lack of mental health support available to those suffering from it. We welcome your participation and look forward to hearing your ideas on this subject, which is vital to our future in EM, as well as that of patients.
The short biographies of the speakers are on the registration page.

Child maltreatment is a worldwide threat to a child’s individual physical and psychological health and has a huge impact on the socio-economic level. Emergency departments (EDs) are the main entrance to acute health care and systematic screening at the ED has shown to increase the detection rate of child maltreatment.
On EM-day we proudly present to you the results of a survey performed in 2018 & 2019 to evaluate screening of child maltreatment in EDs in Europe to define areas of improvement. The survey was kindly distributed through EUSEM, REPEM, and EuSEN key members. Hospitals were scored based on the NICE guideline on child abuse & neglect.
