- Aim: The aim of this article is to explore whether ambulance clinicians in Sweden perceive their working environment to be safe. Method: Twenty four ambulance nurses and nine paramedics at five ambulance stations in urban and rural areas of Sweden were interviewed. Findings: After transcripts of the interviews had been analysed, nine issues that affect how participants perceive the safety of patient care in ambulances emerged: planning before departure; use of safety belts; driving at high speeds; patient first, safety second; equipment design and placement; noise; driving styles; presence of relatives; documentation. Conclusion: Ambulance personnel should have greater involvement in the design of ambulance care spaces and drivers should be given more regular training.
